They'll look you in the eyes and stone you
then turn and disown you
don't let them take the fight outta you

they'll walk all over your name
'til they find someone else to blame
don't let them take the fight outta you

secrets hide their lies inside hidden alibis
don't let them take the fight outta you

they put the world on a hook
it's worse every time i look
don't let them take the fight outta you

i would rather take a punch
than not give you a shot
i'd rather find out who you are
than who you're not
shoulda known better than to mistake business for love
shoulda known better than to mistake a fist for a glove

it will be in your honor
'til you're not needed any Longer
don't let them take the fight outta you
don't believe the headlines
check it for yourself sometimes
don't let them take the fight outta you
the lies you live become you
the love you lose it numbs you
don't let them take the fight outta you
they say that you've arrived
that's just a high class bribe
don't let them take the fight outta you

i would rather take a punch
than not give you a shot
i'd rather find out who you are
than who you're not
shoulda known better
than to mistake business for love
shoulda known better
than to mistake a fist for a glove

there's always someone younger
someone with more hunger
don't let them take the fight outta you
they'll say you're one and only
then straight up leave you lonely
don't let them take the fight outta you
like a transplant patient
waiting for a donor
don't let them take the fight outta you
like a half empty balloon
after a party in the corner
don't let them take the fight outta you
