This problem description sounds like the clutch master cylinder is bad, check the fluid level.
Then look under the dashboard where the clutch pedal pushrod enters the master cylinder. Check for seepage.

Yeah basically there is some leak within your clutch hydraulic system. Your master cylinder(mounted on the engine side of the firewall) is connected to the pedal directly. There is a hard metal line that runs down to the slave cylinder (mounted on the front of the transmission). I would make sure your clutch reservoir is at max with brake fluid and then try bleeding the clutch: Bleeder on slave closed>pedal down>bleeder open>bleeder closed>pedal up.
If bleeding doesn't help then your problem is the slave or master cylinder. They are fairly easy and cheap to replace.
