Don't Give Up

So you say that your love has turned to hate
That you've given up, it's much too late.
You think that love has been a lie
And now all you do is moan and cry.

Well, wake your ass up, get out there and see
All the wonder that only love can be.
Whine, whine, whine, so she broke your heart
Now you don't want to attempt a brand new start.

Isn't that mature of you, so big and so brave,
Why don't you go ahead and dig yourself that grave?
I mean you're already dead from the inside out
So just go on and lie there and continue to pout.

Love comes to those who believe, those it can feel
It does not attempt to explain, it does not offer an appeal,
It demands to be heard when it comes along,
It nourishes the weak and fortifies the strong.

Please don't give up, for true love is rare,
But everyone has "that one" somewhere out there.
It may not be all fireworks and that bull about "at first glance"
But love can be yours if you give it a chance.
