lyrics
I'm not fighting anymore, gonna let it all slide.
Gonna let it run down, to my knees and my feet.
Gonna give it all away, know what to say,
'cause I know I'm not alone, I'm not fighting anymore
You can have what's left of this ragged frame.
You can have what's left of this used up chain.
I'm not fighting anymore, gonna let it all go.
The melting of a man, like the sun on the snow.
I'm not fighting anymore, gonna let it all down.
'Cause this all town, don't know me anyhow.
We don't own nothing much, it's all passing by.
Let it all cry, let it run dry.
I'm not fighting anymore, not keeping score,
gonna let it all fade, gonna let it all wane.
I'm not fighting any less, I see the sea.
Feel it in the chest, heard something in the breeze.
Now I know where I'm bound, some kind of ecstasy.
That far away lonesome sound, picture you so pretty.
Now I know where I'm for, when my sweetness is there.
Crack a light on the door leaves nothing to compare.
I'm not fighting any more.
Not fighting any more.
Not fighting any more.
You can have what's left of this ragged frame.
You can have what's left of this pain.
I'm not fighting anymore, gonna let it all go.
The melting of a man, like the sun on the snow.
I'm not fighting anymore, not keeping score,
gonna let it all fade, gonna let it all wane.
