The Good Fight

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The way that things are going now I won't find a place to keep our clothes As softly as a kettle drum Thunder in the night is but a groan [Chorus] 'Til we leave home And they won't see us go [Verse 2] And frightened is no way to fall At least become a renegade and brawl Well, I am young and taking arms Against a sea of troubles of my own [Chorus] When we leave home They won't see us go [Bridge] Am I calm enough? Big enough? Brave enough? Bad enough? To straighten out, sober up Settle down and make enough To make it last and be the one To be around at home enough Is it strange to think so much? I do because I give a fuck And I mean nothing to it [Chorus] We'll leave home They won't see us go And we'll leave alone They won't dream any more [Verse 3] And I can't fake the fight It is dark and violent And you can't fake the fight It is stark and silent Forget me not while I I am still and quiet Se souvenir de moi Dans ma tour d'ivoire [Outro] And I should listen to the loud and uncomfortable silence after asking why I need all this stuff And I should listen to the loud and uncomfortable silence after asking why I need all this stuff I am not the only one without an effort or means doing terrible things and meaningless things and beautiful things I wanna remember what feeling feels like The deep and horrible kind that makes you sense and want to be alive and breathe The shit that makes you try I wanna remember all life and limb and risking form for everything Tasting sweat and touching skin, number the numbers, cross with the numbers No matter how much i tell myself I hate the city all seasons of the year, I'll rise when it greets me The skyline's standing ovation, beach rhyming of that sun soaked horizon It's the only lover that could ever leave me for dead Who might still return to the dust and lust for its dirty air Its sweet talking gutters, this God damn city, reigniting the feel I am onwards to USA I am spending my time wanting to disappear and be invisible Running out of self I claw my skin Assuming a new anonymity, I wanna feel my self, I wanna do my self, I wanna live my self I wanna mean something unless somebody opposes In front of every great woman and some dumb mother fucker who can't remember his right And here I am, I should just listen to myself I should just listen to the loud and uncomfortable silence asking why I need all this stuff I should listen to the loud and uncomfortable silence asking why I need all this stuff I should listen to the loud and uncomfortable silence asking why I need all this stuff I should listen to the loud and uncomfortable silence asking why I need all this stuff I should listen to the loud and uncomfortable silence asking why I need all this stuff
