Don't Give Up (feat. Sinéad O'Connor)

In this proud land we grew up strong

We were wanted all along

I was taught to fight, taught to win

I never thought I could fail

No fight left or so it seems

I am a man whose dreams have all deserted

I've changed my face, I've changed my name

But no one wants you when you lose

Don't give up

'Cause you have friends

Don't give up

You're not beaten yet

Don't give up

I know you can make it good

Though I saw it all around

I never thought that I could be affected

I thought that we would be the last to go

It is so strange the way things turn

Drove the night toward my home

The place that I was born, on the lakeside

And as daylight broke, I saw the earth

The trees had burned down to the ground

Don't give up

You still have us

Don't give up

We don't need much of anything

Don't give up

'Cause somewhere there's a place

There's a place where we belong

Got to walk out of here, I can't take anymore

I'm gonna stand on that bridge, keep my eyes down below

Whatever may come and whatever may go

That river's flowing

That river's flowing

Moved on to another town

Tried hard to settle down

For every job so many men

So many men no one needs

Don't give up

'Cause you have friends

Don't give up

You're not the only one

Don't give up

No reason to be ashamed

Don't give up

You still have us

Don't give up now

We're proud of who you are

Don't give up

You know it's never been easy

Don't give up

'Cause I believe there's a place

There's a place where we belong
