[Future Islands - The Fight lyrics]

It wasn’t all a scream
We packed away the dream
And pocketed the loss in a world without
A little bit of doubt are we just the cost?
I couldn’t stand the rain so I ran away
And all I found was snow

Now I’m back on my own
Another winter in shadow, in shadoww
Can I do it alone? Now I’m back in my cell
Back with myself waiting on the phone

But, I will, I will keep fighting
I won’t fade away I will face every day
As if it’s my last one
And I will keep you safe
Just like our past was
Fight for love every day

The day I went away from everything I chose
To everything I own was the day I lost
It wasn’t only you
Or the springing well of youth
But the certainty of love

Now I’m back on my own
Another winter in shadow
Just me and my shadow can I do it alone?
Now I’m back in my cell back in my shell
But, I’m backing myself

'Cause, I will, I will keep fighting
I won’t fade away I will face every day
As if it’s my last one
And I will keep you close
Just like our past was
Fight for love every day
'Cause this could be my last one

This could be my last one
Could be my last one
This could be my last one
So I will keep fighting I will keep fighting
I’ll keep on fighting
And I’ll fight every day
