[Verse 1]Kept awake by things I never wasCounting footsteps in my head or in your reverieI see you're back—oh, what a dark surprise…Take away my head and cover up my eyes[Verse 2]I heard we all get cancers all the time… they only break us when we're too burned out to fight itChipping pieces of my soul away 'cause if there's nothing left, there's nothing left to save[Chorus 1]I won't give up and I won't give inIf you want me to, I won't die for you[Bridge]In a coat of many colors you were standing on the shoreWith your whispers of salvation keeping people wanting moreAnd the devil's in the details, on my shoulder, in my headIt's a battle that was raging over little things you saidNow I'm tired of telling stories and I'm tired of staying home…It's the things we take for granted, it's a name that we can't say[Chorus 2]I won't give up and I won't give inIf you want me to, I won'tI won't die for youIf you want me toIf you want me to[Coda]I heard we all were dying all the time… it only burns us when we're too broke down to fight it
