This uphill battle
I've been fighting my whole life
Somehow this melody cuts deeper
Than their knives
These three chords can win this war
And it's not even a fair fight
Forget about yourself for just a while

I didn't really feel like singing this song
I've finally made it back
Where you were all along
It almost ended tragically
It almost all went wrong
I didn't really feel like singing this song

If I was afraid to fail I wouldn't even try
I won't be written off
I won't let them decide
For what it's worth this doesn't work unless
You're hanging on these lines
Forget about yourself for just a while

I didn't really feel like singing this song
I've finally made it back
Where you were all along
It almost ended tragically
It almost all went wrong
I didn't really feel like singing this song

Do you ever feel
Like we were meant for something better still?
Well maybe not
But forget about yourself for just a while

I didn't really feel like singing this song
I've finally made it back
Where you were all along
It almost ended tragically
It almost all went wrong
I didn't really feel like singing this song
I didn't really feel like singing this song
