Lyrics
SETTLED (Never Give Up) - music and lyrics by Richard C. (Kluso) Tollini © 2010
Hardly ever does a day go by that she doesn't sit and wonder why she settled
For a common man of common pride, who would never know or understand just why
You can put on a show only for so long, now 30 years have come and gone
And the secrets friends keep inside is somewhere between the truth and common lies
(v2)
For a life of meaningless goodbyes, praticed smiles, and alibis ... he settled
Thinking this is the way it's supposed to be but not the dream, just the fall
And every human life is like a work of art timeless treasures, all .. but most just thrown away and..
the secrets people keep inside are somewhere between the truth and common lies, so
(chorus)
Never give up Never give up your dreams
Life never turns out as it seems (just) use your imagination
Never give up Never give up your heart
Every step is another brand new start toward your destination
And every tragedy falls on the heels of someone just like you and me
Settled on divinity
Settled on mediocrity
Without a mighty life
there can never be no peace (no final peace)
(Chorus/Outtro)
Never give up Never give up your dreams
Life never turns out as it seems so use your imagination
Always make up always make up your mind
There's never been a better time to change your situation
Never give up Never give up your heart
Every step is another brand new start toward your destination
