Which is the mistake: to give or to take?
To close my eyes or stay awake?
Do you hide from yourself in the light
Or hide from people who hurt you in the dark?
Do you leave it behind
or try to reignite an old spark?
Do you surrender yourself in honor of your faith
Or do you believe in yourself enough to create your own fate?
The truth is, it doesn't matter how you answer because none of these options are mistakes.
They're choices. And, regardless of the outcome, it's not a mistake to make a choice.

Give me your pain so I can understand
Give me your love
so I can be a better man.
Give me your hope
When I've had a bad day.
Give me words
when I can't find ones to say.
Whatever you can give, I'll take it all.
And in return,
I'll break down my walls.

I see a lot of Take

                        So I no longer Give
Deuces

Zero ***** also works as a title but London lingo man
I gave my whole life to you
But...
You wasted it.

I offered my purest love
But...
You rejected it.

I made you happy
But...
You made me miserable.

I loved you more than anything
But...
You rejected and walked away.

You torn me into pieces
But...
I'm thankful I learned to love myself first.

— The End —
