Goddamn Good Fight

running 10 months old, we were told
you get the love as long as you hold
past didn't last cause i was fooled
why pained me if you love me a hundredfold?

two different world, you and i, unalike
we test the waters and build a homelike
fruit of love bloom in a meadow of earth-like
but you hit me hard with just one strike

nightmares, hopelessness arose once again
hot flashes, burning bridges reached heaven
believe me, i love you through thick and thin
but why let your hands poured the burden so sudden?

sure it's okay but everything i feel isn't alright
flickered hope, cracked voices in hindsight
and then tears reigned the whole night
like losing a goddamn good fight
