Lyrics
WE FIGHT
Weigh me in, tape me up
Tie my hands in these ten ounce gloves
March me down the centre aisle
Ring that bell as the crowd goes wild
We fight, we fall
Sometimes we stand in victory
Sometimes we have to crawl
We hide the pain
Smile when it's the hardest dance away from darkness
Stand alone and shimmer in the light we fight
Bring the ice, heal my wounds
Have I bled enough tonight for you?
I gave my heart, I went to war
I pulled no punches but you still want more
We fight, we fall
Sometimes we stand in victory
Sometimes we have to crawl
We hide the pain
Smile when it's the hardest dance away from darkness
Stand alone and shimmer in the light we fight
We fight against the fear, stand tall while we are here
Staring death in the eye
We fight, we fall
Sometimes we stand in victory
Sometimes we have to crawl
We hide the pain
Smile when it's the hardest dance away from darkness
Stand alone and shimmer in the light we fight
