Quit

Sometimes I just want to give up and quit
We’ve all had those times when life isn’t right
Like you can’t find your feet in a bottomless pit
And the light at the end of the tunnel is just out of sight

Like you’ve taken all you can take
And the harder you try the deeper you get
All the people you thought you knew turned out to be fake
Yeah sometimes life is rough and you get tired of it

But you just have to keep on keeping on
Because you never know when your time is done
