These times are not the same as they once used to be
I'll tell you again, son
These times are not the same as they once used to be
Give it a break

And forget what you were told
You'll just end up losing more
Luck will never shine down on your face
And all the gods you knew gamble away your fate

Don't think about getting away
You can't escape this dream
Get used to this reality
Give up, give up
You know it had to be this way

This is the freedom you get
It stays with us untill we meet death
I hoped life was something more than this
Give up, give up
You know it had to be this way

Give it up, just give it up

These thougths were not so dark as you remembered they were
I'll tell you again, son
These times are not the same as they once used to be
Give it a break

I wish i'd started learning before
Life seems so wasted and gone
Lost and in ruins just like the stars
I'm not that pretty but i wish i was

Don't think about getting away
You can't escape this dream
Get used to this reality
Give up, give up
You know it had to be this way

This is the freedom you get
It stays with us untill we meet death
I hoped life was something more than this
Give up, give up
You know it had to be this way

Give it up, just give it up

Just give up, do not try it
You will end up losing everything
