Given Up on Me Lyrics by The Weeknd

[Intro]
Love me, love me, love me, say you do
Let me fly away with you
Satisfy this hungriness
Ayy, ayy, baby

[Verse]
I’ve been lying to your faces, yeah
I’ve been always wasted, it’s too late to save me
Save me (Save me), save me (Save me), save me (Save me)
Oh, save me (Woah)
Fill another cup of forsaken (Baby)
Yeah, ’til my stomach achin’, bloated in my face, and
Face it (Face it), face it (Face it), face it (Face, yeah)
Just let me go

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ll always lie to you (To you)
I’m unreliable (For you, babe)
Tell me you care for me
Just give me what I need, eh

[Chorus]
Why won’t you let me go?
Why won’t you let me leave?
I’ve given up on me, yeah
I think I’m in too deep
Why won’t you let me go? Oh-oh
Why won’t you let me leave? (Yeah)
I’ve given up on me, yeah
I think I’m in too deep

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I need you to let go, let go, let go, oh-oh-oh

[Bridge: The Weeknd & Future]
Why won’t you let me sleep?
Why won’t you let me go?
Why won’t you let me try?
Why won’t you let me die?

[Interlude]
I could never leave you alone
I could never leave you alone
I could never leave you alone
Leave you alone—
Leave you alone—
Leave you alone—
Leave you—

[Verse]
It keeps calling me back, the sunshine
I can feel the warmth on my skin for the first time
When I’m far away from you, babe, I’m on fire
My sunshine, my sunshine
I know it’s not good for me, I know it’s not good for me
I know it’s not fair to me, I know
You’re no good for me, baby, my sunshine
It’s not good for me, no, the sunshine

[Outro]
Ooh, Lord
I want your company (Eh)
Ooh, oh, Lord, oh, Lord
Don’t you give up on me
Mercy-cy me
Oh, Lord, my company
Mercy me
Oh-oh, listen
