GIVEN UP Lyrics by SOCIAL STATE

2017

[Verse 1]

She’s been stressing lately, about a lot of things
That her paranoias growing higher
She’s got no money left, rent is due
Daddys vex, but still she wants to get high
She’s gon’ be living on the streets
By the time she’s 23
Not a care in the world, but new shoes on her feet
No cash in the bank, to fund her uni degree
No part time job, she’s just another dead-beat
But, still she’s on the way to the club man
It’s half past eleven, she’s collecting her wristband
Boyfriend’s late, and she feels like shit
Damn, then he shows up
And he’s grabbing her right hand
Pushes him away, starts to feel with regret
And, emotions running up
She feels like throwing up
Hand enough to drink, cannot handle growing up
Daddy’s little girl, feeling broken
There’s no love (there’s no love)

[Chorus]

She feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
She’s giving up man (she’s given up)

She feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
She’s giving up man (she’s given up)

[Verse 2]

We were knocking round town
Telling me to calm down
Yeah, it’s half past twelve
And we’re still fucking round
You just talk about sex and being perplexed
While your mom is at home, yeah
Paying of your debts
You asked me to go on a date man
I’ve only met you once
Don’t you think that’s too much?
Damn, I heard you got a man
Is it true, is it fake?
And, I gotta go soon
Let’s go dance to this next jam
(This next jam)
One more drink and I’m gonna have to go
Stop stop stop
Does your man even know?
Stop stop stop
Is that him on the phone?
Fuck that shit
One of us has to go

[Chorus]

She feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
She’s giving up man (she’s given up)

She feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
Feels like giving up (she feels like giving up)
She’s giving up man (she’s given up)

[Outro]

What does it all mean?
