Lyrics

Take What You Give

[Verse 1: Shane Told]

Took a deep breath underwater

Watched the waves go by over and over

All the right things at all the wrong times

Sink when I should swim, too late to rewind

I don’t know what I want or what I expected

I don’t know how I got to feel so rejected

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

[Chorus: Shane Told]

I count the days I tried to listen

I should have quit

‘Cause every time I keep on missing

The point of all of this

Sad truth, bad news

Is that all I get?

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

[Verse 2: Shane Told]

It gets harder waiting for it

Tell me when’s it gonna hurt and I’ll try to ignore it

I wanted something new but nothing is changing

I've gotta stop searching for something worth saving

[Chorus: Shane Told]

I count the days I tried to listen

I should have quit

‘Cause every time I keep on missing

The point of all of this

Sad truth, bad news

Is that all I get?

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

[Bridge: Pierre Bouvier]

It’s no use trying to remember

Can’t forget what I already know

This moment feels like forever

This current never lets me go

[Outro Chorus: Shane Told & Pierre Bouvier]

I count the days I tried to listen

I should have quit

‘Cause every time I keep on missing

The point of all of this

Sad truth, bad news

Is that all I get?

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give

It’s the way that it is

You can’t take what you give
