Lyrics

I'm sitting here trying I'm sitting here trying, all my My useless crying My useless crying gets me, It gets me nothing It gets me nothing, I know I'll never beat you And so I bang my head. I'm poundin the walls and I see red I bang my head Well I'm biding my time until I'm dead.

It gives me courage It gives me courage to be So discouraged I'm so discouraged and I Dont have to worry I dont have to worry, I know I'll never beat you And so I bang my head I'm poundin the walls and I see red I bang my head I'm biding my time until I'm dead.

Give up Give up, submit, and say you're wrong Give up Give up to me. Give up Give up, submit, and say you're wrong Give up.

I'm sick of trying I'm sick of trying, all my My useless crying My useless crying gets me, It gets me nothing It gets me nothing, I know I'll never beat you And so I bang my head. I'm poundin the walls and I see red Bang my head I'm biding my time until I'm dead.

Give up..."
