How can you do this every day?
They had their chance and threw it away
There's better lives a lot like yours
In open arms not closing doors

You give it away
You give it away
You give it away

What do they prove by hanging on?
What do we lose if they were gone?
Why does it mean so much to you?
You should be proud of what you do

You give it away

You can't save everyone
You can't set everybody free
You can't just change the world
(But you try)
It's good enough for me

You can't save everyone
You can't set everybody free
You can't just change the world
(But you try)
It's good enough for me

I could watch them fade away
They were the victims yesterday

You never think like that, I know
It's why I'll never let you go

You give it away

You can't save everyone (You give it away)
You can't set everybody free
You can't just change the world
(But you try)
It's good enough for me

You can't save everyone
You can't set everybody free
You can't just change the world
(But you try)
It's good enough for me

Let them go it's been too long
Let them go it's been too long
Let them go it's been too long
Let them go it's been too long

You can't save everyone
You can't set everybody free
You can't just change the world
(But you try)
It's good enough for me
