Meg & Dia - Fighting For Nothing |
| [00:-1.00] |
|
| [00:00.00] |
|
| [00:10.66] |
When I was younger, |
| [00:12.68] |
I wish that I would have known better |
| [00:15.54] |
Better love makes a fat romance, |
| [00:18.40] |
Lasts for more than a shoe shine |
| [00:19.78] |
I'm bolder, took all the words of my mother |
| [00:23.92] |
Saying it could be worse, |
| [00:25.98] |
Could be born with that disease |
| [00:28.00] |
Instead of catching it first |
| [00:29.68] |
|
| [00:30.70] |
So let's go back to the first time |
| [00:33.51] |
That I met you in your Chevy |
| [00:36.29] |
With your hands stretched and me crying, screaming "mercy, mercy" |
| [00:41.75] |
But I know that I was put here |
| [00:44.73] |
To fight vikings in the cold war, |
| [00:47.60] |
with my arms out in the front singing "tear me, tear me" |
| [00:52.20] |
|
| [00:52.98] |
But these things take time, love |
| [00:55.78] |
These things take backbone |
| [00:58.83] |
And they'll tell you what you want to hear |
| [01:01.50] |
Cause they say it gets better, better |
| [01:04.19] |
But you better know how to point out the liars |
| [01:10.17] |
You've got to win your wars, make sure |
| [01:12.60] |
You're not fighting for nothing, nothing |
| [01:15.46] |
Are you fighting for nothing, nothing |
| [01:18.81] |
|
| [01:20.95] |
It feels like this world has been growing slowly upside down, |
| [01:26.05] |
Maybe I should move to China, straighten this mess out |
| [01:30.65] |
Maybe I'll be a poet, watch all the sky for falling words |
| [01:34.50] |
Write about my grandma's curtains |
| [01:37.30] |
Or the lady who put the chinese buffet in her purse |
| [01:41.52] |
I've got my mouth, it's a weapon |
| [01:44.08] |
It's bombshell, it's a cannon |
| [01:46.89] |
I've got my words, I won't give them mercy, mercy |
| [01:51.55] |
|
| [01:52.40] |
But these things take time, love |
| [01:55.10] |
These things take backbone |
| [01:58.15] |
And they'll tell you what you want to hear |
| [02:00.72] |
They say it gets better, better |
| [02:03.50] |
But you better know how to point out the liars |
| [02:09.47] |
You've got to win your wars, make sure |
| [02:11.90] |
You're not fighting for nothing, nothing |
| [02:14.78] |
Are you fighting for nothing, nothing |
| [02:18.26] |
|
| [02:48.70] |
I've got my words, |
| [02:51.61] |
I hope they hurt you |
| [02:54.50] |
I hope they scar you |
| [02:57.22] |
I hope they heal you |
| [03:00.25] |
I hope they cut you open, make you seal the warn |
| [03:03.36] |
For all the wrong reasons, make you see |
| [03:05.49] |
that some things were worth bruising for |
| [03:07.53] |
Make you see that your name is your honor code |
| [03:10.27] |
Make you see that your hands you're accounted for |
| [03:13.19] |
They can choose where your sweat and you blood will go |
| [03:16.05] |
Make you see your life's not to be lived alone |
| [03:18.93] |
Run the strip through your hair |
| [03:20.37] |
You're worth nothing, nothing |
| [03:22.00] |
|
| [03:22.93] |
These things take time, love |
| [03:25.60] |
These things take backbone |
| [03:28.43] |
And they'll tell you what you want to hear |
| [03:31.19] |
Cuz they say it gets better, better |
| [03:33.77] |
But you better know how to point out the liars |
| [03:40.09] |
You've got to win your wars, make sure |
| [03:42.43] |
You're not fighting for nothing, nothing |
| [03:45.15] |
But these things take time, love |
| [03:48.25] |
These things take backbone |
| [03:51.07] |
And they'll tell you what you want to hear |
| [03:53.86] |
They say it gets better, better |
| [03:56.30] |
But you better know how to point out the liars |
| [04:02.62] |
You've got to win your wars, make sure |
| [04:05.00] |
You're not fighting for nothing, nothing |
| [04:07.63] |
Are you fighting for nothing, nothing |
| [04:11.84] |
