Candlebox is a rock band from Seattle, Washington. Formed in December 1991, they originally named the band Uncle Duke and later changed it as a tribute to a song by Midnight Oil. They were sometimes looked down upon by grunge fans for their style, which was considered by many to be a derivative version of true grunge, and their commercial success as result of it. Despite this, the band played the Seattle club circuit during the early 1990s to the many of the same fans who had supported many of the bands that had come immediately before them. The members did not consider Candlebox to be a grunge band however; they viewed themselves as a rock and roll band more than anything and their style reflected that.

Can't Give In Lyrics
Candlebox
"She took the time, kept a run-on
She did the lines and never new 'em
Said she could but I never understand
I took the chance kept a run-on
Draw the line, I never did on
Said she could but I never understand
I can't forsake you
I can't give in
I can't forsake you
I can't give in
I can't give in to you
She rolls in town, needing nothing
She did her time, 'cause of something
She said you should, and you never understand
She took your mind, keep on swimmin'
You blow your mind, but you forgive it
Said she would and you never understand
I can't forsake you
I can't give in
I can't forsake you
I can't give in
I can't give in to you
She could take her time, and never did it
Keep your life in line, you could commit it
You should live the life I give to you
We can learn to fight, I can't believe it
Pour your heart inside, you won't believe in
What you like tonight, I'm gonna be with you
So pleased to show you'll find but can't perceive it
At least you shouldn't mind and can't believe it
What you like tonight, I'm gonna be with you
I said I'm into you
I can't give in, give in to you
She could take her time, and can't believing
At least you shouldn't mind, can't deceive it
Where you're at tonight, I'm gonna be with you
So pleased to show you'll find, can't believe it
At least you shouldn't mind, you won't believe it
Where you're at tonight, I'm gonna be with you"
