Throwing in the Towel Lyrics > Outsiders

[DARREL]
Soda, I'm really a mess
Every night I worry myself to sleep
While you're watching cartoons
There ain't nothing I can do for you
I know that Ponyboy's really got a damn good heart
Something 'bout him that really could take him far
But I keep holding him down
I've run this family right into the ground
Maybe you'd be best without me
I don't know what else to say
I lost our brother and I lost my way
I think a fool could'a done better
Maybe I've been afraid to say
That I'm just not cut out for this
Just another failure on a growing list
And it's harder now than ever
It's more than I can take
There ain't no one to bail me out
There ain't no saving this now
I think I'm throwing in the towel

[SODAPOP]
On the days when you feel like you're torn in two
Making dinner, paying bills that are overdue
Think that I don't see?
It'd go to hell if it was left up to me
And I don't know what we would do if you were not around
The one to keep the ship afloat when its going down
Darrel, I need you
And anyone can see that Pony does too
I know you love him
That's all you gotta do
And I don't know what else to say
I know you feel like you've lost your way
But I think you're doing better
Better than you know

[DARREL]
If he comes back, there’s a price to pay
What if they lock our brother away?

[SODAPOP]
There ain’t no way of knowin’
We've gotta get our brother home

[DARREL, SODAPOP, & PONYBOY]
This is the darkest hour of the darkest night
Looking up ahead, you can't see no light
But the time is now or never
There ain't no letting go

[SODAPOP]
You might feel like you’re givin’ out
We need you more than ever now
Don't go throwing in the towel
I know your head is full of doubt
But brother, that's what love is all about
Don't go throwing in the towel

[DARREL, SODAPOP, & PONYBOY]
When you love someone that's all that you can do
There ain't no throwing in the towel
