Quitter

I apologize for every time
I give my wing to a hitter
Neglecting the most important things in life
To me
All I want from you
My friend is for you
To get back on the horse that you fell off before
'Cause I know what you’ve got in you
Don’t you cry so loud
Put the white flags down
But don’t stop 'cause you quitters never can be winners
(As we all know)
I can’t stand back here watching you destroy your liver
(As do we all)
I don’t think that you realize you’re a home run hitter
(As we all know)
So get back up and finish what you put together
Together
Whoa
I recall the day
When you would tell
Whatever it was to get the hell out of the way
But now the new results are in
In all honesty
I still believe
You’ve got a piece of that person
Rolled up in your sleeve
So let the magic show begin
Where did the things that you love go
When you took it upon yourself to crush 'em up and throw 'em away
(I looked through the trash
But all’s I found was a stash
Of all these dirty syringes and a bag of some leftover cocaine)
I’ve never been there before
But there’s more love for you here
Than there’ll ever be there for you
At the bottom of a trash pail
