Every time I try something new I fall on my face/Even if I've been here forever I still feel out of place/Everybody tells me, "You can do it if you try."/Yeah right./I'm sick of tryin', I'm sick of lyin' to myself and besides, I know I'll never win./I give up./I forfeit./There's no shame in knowin' when to quit./So I give in./I'd rather live to fight another day than die a forgotten man/You might think that makes me a coward, but i have a master plan/I wonder if someday they'll ever see the way I see?/That there's victory in defeat./I'm sick of tryin', I'm sick of lyin' to myself and besides, I know I'll never win./I give up./I forfeit./There's no shame in knowin' when to quit./So I give in.
