Brother I am begging you 
Please don't let this life destroy you 
You spend so much time hiding inside 
Cutting out the hurt with a knife 

I can only watch you fall 
Throw my heart against your walls 
Why do you enjoy your pain 
Sister we are one and the same 

Don't give up, just hold on 
give it time it won't be long 
I'm here to open up your eyes 
Don't leave this part of us behind 
Don't give up just hold on 

I see the hard times on your face 
If you'd hear my cries you'd change your ways 

But it's like a trip through the past 
I know you're on your own and fading fast 
I'm with you 

Don't give up, just hold on 
give it time, it won't be long 
I'm here to open up your eyes 
Don't leave this part of us behind 
Don't give up just hold on 

It kills me that I couldn't see 
That someone that I love needed me 
You are a part of who I am 
I will fight this fight with you till the end

Don't give up just hold on 
In the time it won't be long 
I'm here to open up your eyes 
Don't leave this part of us behind 
Don't give up, just hold on (2x)

Don't give up, just hold on 
Don't give up, just hold on
