The Simple Act Of Giving Up Lyrics by Ice Nine Kills

The Simple Act Of Giving Up

Here I go again, put me on the first train heading eastbound.
And if it's true I'm still alive, I promise not to tell my dad I'm miserable
but thanks for all the sacrifice.
Cause I'm ashamed of the things that I did,
I said whatever it took just to get her in bed and
It's kinda fun when you're only a kid
but you grow up to learn that the scars are kinda permanent.
But I haven't had one drink in three whole years.
There's no need for drinking when you're not here.
Do you find it amusing I'm seeing clear?
in this haze of hateful atmosphere.

So come on we're not fooling anybody tonight
We're the king and queen of social suicide.
And things are better now nowing that we've never felt anyone else.

So take me out, cause I'm a mess when I'm alone.
Oh and if anyone can help, I think I'm losing it
I grab and hold on tightly but i start to slip.
I've got a problem with my self control, [Hold on]
I fall in love when I'm with any girl. [Honest]
They got it wrong saying love is blind it's fine,
It's just disguised as sex tonight.

And it's too hard to deny.
Cause she's got that dress on,
you know the one that shows off the things that she can do to me.
And I'm taking lessons how not to beg for sex
it's just a side effect we're feeling from the ectasy.

So come one we're not getting any younger tonight.
Your the gracious host and I'm the parasite.
It's the simple act of growing old
mixed in with chemicals
and we're the end results, slow down...
Cause I can tell when you're aroused, like now...

So take, take me out, cause I'm a mess when I'm alone.
Oh and if anyone can help, I think I'm losing it
I grab and hold on tightly but i start to slip.
I've got a problem with my self control, [Hold on]
I fall in love when I'm with any girl. [Honest]
They got it wrong saying love is blind it's fine,
It's just disguised as sex tonight.

And as long as I'm alive
I'll try to mend this broken future [we call life]
[I'm feeling better all the time]
[Pretend you care for me tonight]
[It's safe to say that I'll be fine, this time]

So take me out, cause I'm a mess when I'm alone.
And if anyone can help, I'm losing it
So this one goes out, to all you lovestruck fools
I've got news for you, I know a thing or two on giving up.
To all you heartless souls i think it's best you know i play the leading role on giving up

To all you lovestruck fools, we've got news for you,
We know a thing or two on giving up.
To all you heartless souls, we think it's best you know, we play the leading role on giving up.
