Post 965: Not Built for Giving Up (9/20/24)

 Not Built for Giving Up (9/20/24 c, w)

i got your email today

BU, i thought "what"

How could this be

What could i have done, done differently

What were the words, words i didn't say

(i'm not built, built for giving up

Up on a love, a love i couldn't get enough

My dreams don't die in the dark, the dark of your heart

i know that i should move on, move on

But i know i'm not, i'm not that strong

i'm not built for giving, giving up

Not built for giving up)

So many memories, memories of you

Haunt my daydreams that can never be

You were, were my everything

You were forever it seemed

At least it did to me

(Chorus)

When i gave my heart, heart away

i meant forever

i believed, believed you'd do the same

The same for me

Now here i stand, stand at the gates of never

A place i never thought, thought we would be

A wasteland of destiny denied

(Chorus)

Years go by and i try to forget you

But that is something, something i just can't figure out

Figure out how to do

i know, it never was the same for you

Now your face is a blur

Even though i can't, can't smell your shampoo

Can't help but think, think of you on some idle day

So much i wish, i wish i could do

Unlike, unlike you

(Chorus x2)
