Giving Up

What happens when you give up?
When you give up on life,
Give up on your story,
Give up on your worth.

What happens when you sell you dreams?
Sell them for a bucket of gold,
Or sell them for anything in the world.

What happens when you are always scared of tomorrow?
When you dread the next day,
Wanting to stay in the today.

Does your world fade away?
Do you fade away?

Do you fade away,
Into a dusk,
Or into a deserted island,
Where birds don't sing,
And grass doesn't sway in the wind?

No one knows.

But I do.

I know where you go,
Where you fade away if you give up.

You fade away,
To the place that you deserved to be at.

What happens when you give up?

Your life fades away.
