    One of the greatest songwriters of our generation. Extremely underrated.

    So many tracks have helped me through so much pain and loss over the years .. this song has touched me as an inspiration to myself to believe in my happiness and push through the loss and guilt.. thank you.

    🎶🎶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 easily throw away
    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 with 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 knowing 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, don't give up on me now
    Don't give up on me now, don't give up on me now
    Don't give up on me now, 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 how
    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🎶🎶

    I think Ben is going through a dark place and seeking to learn, grow and listen to God. This song is the fruit of his pain.

    Ben speaks of real emotion, and you can feel it in his words. We have suffered many hard times and are going to suffer more, Ben knows how to correlate those feelings into meaningful words; true talent.

    @FacelessImagery - just want to say- in this, you are not alone... I agree wholeheartedly with this- and always have- he has and always will be my light in the darkest hour... and for that he is a true artist. His conviction and raw emotion EVERY SINGLE TIME I see him live shakes me to the core of my being.... I see this and witness it, and things become bearable once more. Words can't express my gratitude to him for the many amazing years of music- esp this song-
