In this proud land we grew up strong
We were wanted all along
I was taught to fight
Taught to win
I never thought I could fail

No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I´ve changed my face
I´ve changed my name
But no one wants you when you lose

Don´t give up
´Cause you have friends
Don´t give up
You´re not beaten yet
Don´t give up
I know you can make it good

Though I saw it all around
Never thought that I could be affected
Thought that we´d be the last to go
It is so strange the way things turn

Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
As daylight broke, I saw the earth
The trees had burned down to the ground

Don´t give up
You still have us
Don´t give up
We don´t need much of anything
