lyrics

Giving up isn't easy
It takes all of your might
but giving to complete strangers
takes all of your heart and all of your mind

But instead we keep on living and get old
and count the rolls on our big guts
like the rings on a tree trunk after it's fallen down

Wilfully forgetting is absolutely impossible
But thankfully living
Should be my life's goal

So don't give up so quickly
until you've felt and heard the ground beneath your feet
There're plenty of things to be smelled, tasted and thrown up
So what's the use in your giving up
Feel the breath of the world
Blow it's wind through your stupid curls
