| Woah...this song's f*cking amazing... I wish that it got in the Spiderman 3 soundtrack because I totally relate the lyrics to Spidey, and I love Gifts and Curses. Awesome song and awesome lyrics, hope the whole album is as cool as this song. | |

| i can relate to every word of this song. i don't know how to put it.. i really like my boyfriend but we haven't been close.. he told me he changed for me but now he's like.. a completely different person and it seems like i've been fighting for that old him to come back and appreciate me. "you were delicate and hard to find" thats exactly what he is.. "Said I’d fight for the one that I found I’m gonna stay here while I wait for you to come around I fight, you’re a part of me now And I will never give up, no I will never give up." -i think i waited enough for the 'old him' to come back to me.. but somehow, my heart is saying: don't give up. | |

| To me the song has many meanings. Obvious meaning in the song shows a soldier or person losing faith in the war they are fighting. Significant now I suppose. | |

| Said I´d move and I’d leave it alone But before I walk out there is something that I need you to know I got lost in the blink of an eye And I could never get back, no I never got back … You were not there when I wanted to say That you were everything right And it wasn’t you who need to change Now I gotta go there alone But I will never give up, no I’ll never give up. What am I fighting for? There must be something more For all this words I sing Do you feel anything? Said “I’m ok”, but I know how to lie You were all that I had You were delicate and hard to find Got lost in the back of my mind And I could never get back, no I never got back You were not there when I needed to say I hit the bottom so fast That my head was spinning ‘round for days Now I gotta go there alone But I will never give up… No I’ll never give up… What am I fighting for? There must be something more For all this words I sing Do you feel anything? What am I fighting for? What am I fighting for? Never give up….. on this Never give up…. Up on this Never give up…. On this Never give uuuuuuuuuuuuuuup on this Said “I’m ok” but I know how to lie I will never give up, no I’ll never give up What am I fighting for? There must be something more For all this words I sing Do you feel anything? What am I fighting for? No, I’m never gonna give up, give up What am I fighting for? No, I’m never gonna give up, give up Said that I’d fight for the one that I found I’m gonna stay here while I wait for you to come around I’ll fight, you’re a part of me now And I will never give up, no I’ll never give up! | |

| This song describes exactly how I feel about that one girl I met in elementary school when I was 7 (I am 17 now). I immediately fell in love with her, but I never really noticed cause I was too afraid cause she was so unbelievably beautiful I felt like a fool next to her so I kinda ran away from her. Later at another school we met again and she started talking to me. She was the only one to talk to me at that school, all the others rejected me. I had to go to another school after a while, though and leave her. We lost contact. Now that I'm 17 I noticed how damn much I've always loved her and that she was the one I was looking for in every single girl, but never could really find. I don't know how she feels for me and although she lives in my neighborhood I never see her anymore :( But I swore to myself that I'll never give up. THIS SONG'S MY THEME SONG! Sry to bore you with this. I had to shout it out, though. Plus: it is what this song means to me. | |

| yay!! i made a whole account just for this song. I totally cannot wait till Paper Walls comes out!!!!!! I agree, this would have been good for the Spiderman 3 ST. "What am I fighting for? There must be something more For all these words I sing Do you feel anything" AHHH!! But my favoritest line has to be "Said I'm okay but I know how to lie," *squee* | |

| This is an amazing YC song. To me its when you like someone but they dont like you back, but despite that- you keep trying and trying and hoping they'll come around. | |
