I would be overstating

If I said I knew you well 

That I knew you at all 

When you flew through that windshield 

And your life passed reel to reel 

Was there a bit part for me? 

I made a wish for you 

Blew out the sun so it'd come true 

But the sun froze along with your heart 


So give up, give up your love 

Give up, give up your love 

I promise its not gonna kill ya 

And I need ya, Lord I need ya 


And when they cut up your lung 

You said it could all breathe easy 

The hole swallowed your heart 

When they drill holes in your skull 

And screwed that halo to your head 

Did you think you could fly? 

I made a prayer for you 

Then prayed some more that it'd come true 

Don't know about God but I believe in you 


So give up, give up your love 

Give up, give up your love 

I promise its not gonna kill ya 

And I need ya, Lord I need ya 

And though you haven't got a lot to give up 

A good man is easy to kill well 

Stop talking about the weather and say you're getting better
