Given up

Given Up

I see through the air of confusion
Wrapped in delusion
Every side of hope in defeat
I see through the forgotten daydream
The words like morphine
Running every mind in deceit
The will to care is no longer there
The need to be well known shall go unsown in me

Given up playing the fool for vanity
Given up sacrificing the sanctity

I feel smothered by the expecting
Never rejecting
Such pointless demands in defeat
I feel flustered by the majority
The cold mockery
Drawing false guidelines in deceit
The will to live seems so primitive
The need to be high strung shall go unsung in me

Given up playing the fool for vanity
Given up sacrificing the sanctity

And I don’t feel like I’ve lost my soul
Never missed the time I was under control
And I don’t care about I’ve seen
Gave up my dream

Given up playing the fool for vanity
Given up sacrificing the sanctity
Given up playing the fool for vanity
Given up sacrificing me
Given up
