Keep It Up

Ah! I want you to come back so that I can say nothing I want you to ask so I can turn you away I want you to beg, to regret, to repent But most of all I want you to see things my way Like how you’d insist that you needed more of me That I was neglectful, a mess and real mean You’d run for the hills if I forgot to pet you A lost puppy, always needing to be seen You needed me there, I gave you up So you ran into her arms to cry You did what you’ve done, so you’ll get what you got I just hope that you can keep it up Yeah, I just hope that you can keep it up I just know that now you’re living the same way In your fog of virtuous truth But it’s her who’ll be yes-ing, and sweating and guessing A slave to all the things that you've got to do Like hiding in bed when the going gets tricky And following through is just too hard Better to back out of responsibility Cause you know you can’t fail if you never start You wanna give up, it’s all too much You need to suck everyone dry You did what you’ve done, so you’ll get what you got I just hope that you can keep it up Yeah, I just hope that you can keep it up Ooh, woah It’s funny before me, your last did the same thing So you ran into my arms to cry If it’s always the same thing, suffocating then blaming Well surely you would start wondering why But you did what you’ve done, so you’ll get what you got You did what you’ve done, so you’ll get what you got You did what you’ve done, so you’ll get what you got I just hope that you can keep it up Yeah, I just hope that you can keep it up Yeah, I just hope that you can keep it Keep it up
