Don't give up on me now lyrics - Ben Harper song

Time,
it opens all wounds
and trust,
gonna put me in the tomb
the world isn't mine
the world isn't mine to save
I can't afford to lose
what you resell, throw 'way

And I don't even know myself
what it would take to know myself
I need to change i don't know how
don't give up on me now.

It's not what we do
it's what we do, it's what we feel
takes all you have to stare it down
and whisper, devil no deal
and I don't wanna fight
don't wanna fight my father's war
you can wait your whole life
not knowin what you're waiting for...

And I? don't even know myself
what it would take to know myself
I need to change, i don't know how
don't give up on me now.
and I don't even know myself
what it would take to know myself
I need to change, I don't know (x 2)
don't give up on me now.
