Good Fight

What doesn't kill us makes us die inside[00:14.79]What doesn't make sense makes it easy to lie[00:19.80]What terrifies us makes us run and hide[00:24.54]It don't kill us, but we'll always know it tried[00:36.77]You never asked to be a hero[00:41.65]You didn't want the wisdom[00:46.89]You never chose to fight the good fight[00:54.33]But you were touched by a father's hand[00:58.45]That was never held quite tight enough[01:04.38]And you crossed paths with a runaway train[01:08.38]That never had no tracks at all[01:14.30]And you had to face it[01:16.89]To try and stop it[01:19.37]Or just let it go[01:22.98]Or somewhere in between[01:29.97]What nearly happens happens again and again in our minds[01:34.95]And dreams are at least half of our lives[01:39.79]The first time it goes wrong it comes as some surprise[01:44.44]But in time when we get hurt we start to think it's alright[01:56.65]You never meant to be so selfless[02:01.76]You didn't try to be courageous[02:06.73]You never wanted to fight the good fight[02:14.60]But you were touched by a father's hand[02:18.48]That was never held quite tight enough[02:24.36]And you crossed paths with a runaway train[02:28.18]That never had no tracks at all[02:34.56]And you had to embrace it[02:37.21]To try and steer it[02:38.74]Or let it spin out of control[02:42.98]Or somewhere in between[03:04.78]What doesn't kill us makes us die inside[03:09.70]What doesn't make sense makes it easy to lie[03:14.75]What terrifies us makes us run and hide[03:19.23]And it might not kill us, but we'll always wonder why it tried[03:29.30]And why it failed[03:41.79]You never asked for it[03:45.46]But you were touched by a father's hand[03:49.56]That was never held quite tight enough[03:55.72]And you crossed paths with a runaway train[03:59.77]That never had no tracks at all[04:05.53]But you had to ride it[04:08.12]To try to save it[04:10.39]And you couldn't let go[04:14.35]You're still caught in between
