Giving Back - Vanilla Sky

I know it’s hard to tell the truth

I know it isn’t easy to admit

We are what remains of an unspoken youth

Who fights for everything but his rights

Criticised and forever compromised

I’m giving back again

All the promises you made

You can keep them cause

I don’t deserve

To be threatened by another lie

I’m giving back again

All the fucking sleepless nights

Spent dreaming of a better future

Where we could finally feel alive

I know it’s hard to face the truth

I know it isn’t easy to embrace

The kind of future that

They’ve prepared for us

A delusional state of mind,

Criticised, yet forever compromised

I’m giving back again

All the promises you made

You can keep them cause

I don’t deserve

To be threatened by another lie

I’m giving back again

All the fucking sleepless nights

spent dreaming of a better future

Where we could finally feel alive

For every sacrifice we made

For every truth you’ve ever traded

For all of this

I won’t surrender

No I’ll never surrender

For every painful day we’ve been through

For every losing attitude

For all of this

I’ll never surrender

No never surrender

I’m giving back again

All the promises you made

You can keep them cause I don’t deserve

To be threatened by another lie

I’m giving back again

All the fucking sleepless nights

Spent dreaming of a better future

Where we could finally feel alive
