I know it hurts, I know it haunts you in the night
And in the day you're waiting there in fight or flight
You're walking round inside a cloud, I know the signs
I've walked those roads myself alone too many times

I know that the boulder is so heavy, heavy
Never-ending burden that you hold
I just want to help you if you'll let me, let me
Let me wrap you up against the cold

This pain
Makes you who you are
This pain
Makes you who I love
Your brain
Your deep and ragged edges
You can give me your pain
I can take it all
I can take it all

Don't give up my darling
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
Don't give up my darling
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up

Even when you're drowning in the undertow
You're not alone, you're not alone, you're not alone

This pain
Makes you who you are
This pain
Makes you who I love
Your brain
Your deep and ragged edges
You can give me your pain
I can take it all
I can take it all

Don't give up my darling
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
Don't give up my darling
This is not forever

Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up

Don't give up my darling (this pain)
This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
Don't give up my darling (this pain)

This is not forever
Don't give up, don't give up
This is not forever
This is not forever
This is not forever
I can take it all
