There’s a road that leads to nowhere
But you take it anyway
You don’t think about where you’ll end up
Just the here and now today
You live by laughs
And making up excuses
Pay no attention to addiction
And who it seduces
Growing up is unique for everyone
But we all end up on down the road
How you survive life
Depends on your life’s code
Sooner or later
You’ll see the writing on the wall
Your friends all dying one by one
Your name next on the list to call
The time to get real is now
Before it’s too late
Cause running out of time
Is no time to wait
If you fall down, get up
Just keep on trying
Wipe away the tears
You say you’re not crying
Your future waits with a smile
You’ll be glad to see
Your face in the mirror
The person you want to be
You can be the hero to your younger self
With self-love in your morning cup
Repeat over and over
Don’t give up!
Don’t give up!
Don’t give up!
Don’t give up!
Just keep trying!
Don’t give up!
Don’t give up!
Don’t give up!
