Lyrics

DON’T GIVE UP (words and music by Jack Betty)

Just a single thread
that’s how my life’s hanging.
There’s a choice to make
before my heart stops beating.
All I wanted to
be was more like you.
Now all I want to do
I just can’t say it

Is that Hell ringing or Heaven’s choir singing?
Give me something to believe in.

Someone save me. I’m hanging off the edge, about to fall in.
If I scream it louder will I make you prouder?
I don’t know which way to go.

Is that Hell ringing or Heaven’s choir singing?
Give me something to believe in.

Erase me. Replace me. It would be so easy. No one needs me.
Scream this final prayer. Is anybody there? No one cares!

An inch from the edge. Ready to Jump. A voice in my head says, “don’t give up”
