You tell yourself that you just can't take this
Enough with the madness
This has got to stop now, somehow
And every time you think that you're okay
You get in your own way
Soon enough you're knocked down
Surrounded by your own denial
Give it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up for your frustration
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no use crying over it
People tell you to do what they say
They all want it their way
All that you can do is bite lip or jump ship
So learn to smile at the ones that hate you
No matter what they do
They will never make it there
To where you know you will be going
Give it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up for your frustration
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no use crying over it
You'll be the last one
To know when you're all done
But that's just the way life is now
You've gotta take what you get and give it up somehow
Give it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no use crying over it
Give it up for your anger
Give it up for the tried and true
Give it up for everyone
Who's ever gone and given up on you
Give it up for human nature
Give it up now bit by bit
Give it up for your frustration
Give it up cause kid your future lies here dying
And there's no denying
If you're through complying
Then there's no use crying over it.
