[Chorus]
I wasted so much time on wasting time
Made a million excuses, told myself I'm above it
Now there's symphony where there used to be
Nothing but silence, and I'm never gonna give you up
[Refrain]
(Give you up, give you up, gi-gi-give you up)
(Give you up, give you, give you, never gonna give you up)
(Give you up, give you up, gi-gi-give you up)
(Give you up)
[Verse 1]
I never saw it coming
Exactly what I said I never wanted
I'm so used to running
But something caught me in the headlights that night
Now I'm stuck, can't move, don't want to, so here I'll stay
With a blinking of an eye, I felt my whole life change
[Chorus]
I wasted so much time on wasting time
Made a million excuses, told myself I'm above it
Now there's symphony where there used to be
Nothing but silence, and I'm never gonna give you up
[Refrain]
(Give you up, give you up, gi-gi-give you up)
(Give you up, give you, give you, never gonna give you up)
(Give you up, give you up, gi-gi-give you up)
(Give you up)
[Verse 2]
It's got my colors showing
Despite me always tryna keep them in
I'm so used to knowing
Who I am, but with you, it's like I'm someone new
And I'm stuck, can't move, don't want to, so here I am
In a strange new place that I'd never imagined
[Chorus]
I wasted so much time on wasting time
Made a million excuses, told myself I'm above it
Now there's symphony where there used to be
Nothing but silence, and I'm never gonna give you up
[Refrain]
(Give you up, give you up, gi-gi-give you up)
(Give you up, give you, give you, never gonna give you up)
(Give you up, give you up, gi-gi-give you up)
(Give you up)
[Bridge]
In my darkest of days
I've got a light now to show me the way
It's like I've found my place
And the world doesn't feel the same
[Chorus]
I wasted so much time on wasting time
Made a million excuses, told myself I'm above it
Now there's symphony where there used to be
Nothing but silence
I wasted so much time on wasting time
Made a million excuses, told myself I'm above it
Now there's symphony where there used to be
Nothing but silence, and I'm never gonna give you up
I'm never gonna give you up
I'm never gonna give you up
I'm never gonna give you up
Give You Up was written by Danny Worsnop & Ben Bruce & Cameron Liddell & James Cassells & Sam Bettley.
Give You Up was produced by Matt Good.
Asking Alexandria released Give You Up on Fri May 15 2020.
“Give You Up” is a really cool song, and I think it stands out a little differently on this record. It sounds as if it was cut from a different cloth. That was purposeful because all of this self-belief and leaving toxicity behind had been leading up to this moment. It’s about pricking your ears and...
