Push me pull me as indecisive as the wind
But strong and wise all the same
You call for me but my threads are wearing thin
And time will soon rub out my name

Now you're the river running wild
Straight into the sea
I see you do you see me
And I have tried to run beside you
But now you're on your own

And like a fire we'll burn
Deep into the night
And each in turn
Will be blinded by our light
Oh when will we learn
That to make it all alright
We have to give up this
Fight
Give up this fight

My feet sink deep down into the earth
Like roots they're holding me fast
Don't weep you can't keep begging for rebirth
Like fruit that's fallen to the grass

Now you're the rain that's pouring down
And I'm the thirsty ground
I stay still you're all around
And I have tried to keep you hide you
But now I am drowned

And like a fire we'll burn
Deep into the night
And each in turn
Will be blinded by our light
Oh when will we learn
That to make it all alright
We have to give up this

The winds gave way to fire
And the fire scorched the earth
Which made the earth perspire
Which then washed away the thirst

And like a fire we'll burn
Deep into the night
And each in turn
Will be blinded by our light
Oh when will we learn
That to make it all alright
We have to give up this
We have to give up this
We have to give up this
Fight
Give up this fight
