Marathon Lyrics by EXES

Don’t Give Up On Me Now

2022

[Verse 1]
Quiet, grounded
I was boring when we met
Now I'm friends
With my adrenaline
You get louder
Every time I turn you down
It’s the sound
That's keeping me upset

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I say you wanna doubt it
When I say nothing at all somehow you're mad about it
Well I am tired
And it’s too late
I'm tired
I need... space

[Chorus]
You're a marathon for the brokenhearted
You're a marathon and I don't want to start it
You could say that we tried
I know that it's a lie
But it's not working out
No I'm not working
You’re a marathon for the brokenhearted
You’re a marathon and I don't want to start it
You could say that we tried
I know that it’s a lie
But it's not working out
No I'm not working out

[Verse 2]
Last night, last time
Yeah I swear I'm moving on
Started strong
Now I’m impatient

[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I say you wanna doubt it
When I say nothing at all somehow you're mad about it
Well I am tired
And it's too late
I'm tired
I need... space

[Chorus]
You're a marathon for the brokenhearted
You're a marathon and I don't want to start it
You could say that we tried
I know that it's a lie
But it's not working out
No I'm not working
You're a marathon for the brokenhearted
You're a marathon and I don't want to start it
You could say that we tried
I know that it's a lie
But it's not working out
No I'm not working out

[Bridge]
Darling I don't think I have
Any more time left
Any more fight left
To win it
Darling I don't think I have
Any more time left
Any more fight left
To win it

[Chorus]
You're a marathon for the brokenhearted
You're a marathon and I don't want to start it
You could say that we tried
I know that it's a lie
But it's not working out
No I'm not working out
