Keep on Fighting

If I say that you want too much

Would you say anything at all?

Would you just stand there, lost in your thoughts,

Or would you answer my call?

Would you be silent, would you be mad,

Would you keep taunting me?

Or could you find a way to understand

What I really need?

Could you tell me what I need to hear?

Can you look me in the eyes and say,

Nevermind, it’s okay—

We don’t have to do it your way.

Nevermind, let’s just breathe,

Maybe we can find a new way to believe.

If I ask for a little more space,

Would you pull me close instead?

Would you listen to the words I’ve said,

Or just replay them in your head?

Would you be silent, would you be mad,

Would you keep taunting me?

Or could you find a way to understand

What I really need?

Could you tell me what I need to hear?

Can you look me in the eyes and say,

Nevermind, it’s okay—

We don’t have to do it your way.

Nevermind, let’s just breathe,

Maybe we can find a new way to believe.

Maybe we’re both just trying,

Maybe we’re both just scared.

But if we keep on fighting,

Will anything ever change?

If I say that you want too much

Would you say anything at all?

Would you just stand there, lost in your thoughts, Or would you answer my call?

Nevermind, nevermind,

Let’s try to leave the past behind.

Nevermind, nevermind,

Maybe we’ll find a better time.
