fight

How many times do I
Have to be wrong,
Before I get it right?
How many times do we
Tell the world,
Before they start to fight?

Chorus: We fight.
We fight for what
We know is right.
We fight.
We fight our lives
Through day and night.
We fight.
We fight for what
We know is right.
We fight.

So many ways
But nobody will start,
What am I missing now?
Don’t you just stand
There, start to move,
And come before the crowd.

Chorus.

Bridge: We stand, here together.
We stand, strong and tall.
We stand, here hand in hand,
We stand here one and all.
We take a stand,
And some are shy,
To call out to the crowd.
But I’m not afraid,
To speak the truth,
And I will say it loud:

Chorus.

Some do not see
Some will not see
The damage that was done.
But I can hear
The battle cry
Of the war that must be won.

We can win…
Oh, ‘cause G-d is on our side.
We can win…
If only we start to fight…

Chorus.

blind

[intro] I keep on waiting
For something invisible
And I keep in waiting
For something to change

[a]I’m blinded by pride
And blind to live my life
I’m tripping over past mistakes
I’m dead but I am still awake

[chorus]I had to sacrifice my own
My heart and soul were yours
I gave it up to save myself
my heart and soul we’re yours
What did I think back then
How could I be so blind
I try to blame somebody else
But I know the choice was mine-I know the choice was mine.

[a]No one to guide me home
I tried to walk alone
I’m walking blind without a guide
I want to see but I can’t

[chorus]I had to sacrifice my own
My heart and soul were yours
I gave it up to save myself
My heart and soul were yours
What did I think back then
How could I be so blind
I try to blame somebody else
But I know the choice was mine-I know the choice was mine

[b]I couldn’t see what I walked into
Didn’t want to, wasn’t trying
Didn’t ask questions I just did
And I fell down instead of flying

[chorus]I had to sacrifice my own
My heart and soul were yours
I gave it up to save myself
My heart and soul were yours
What did I think back then
How could I be so blind
I try to blame somebody else
But I know the choice was mine-I know the choice was mine

[ending]I keep on waiting
For somethings invisible
And I keep on waiting
For something to change

fight on

No more suffering, no more pain
Never again

I’m in the war of my life,
at the door of my life,
out of time
and there’s nowhere to run
I’m in the war of my life,
at the core of my life
Got no choice but to fight til its done

So fight on,
fight on everyone
fight on
got no choice but to fight til it’s done
I won’t give up
I won’t run
I won’t stop for anyone…

This is part of a song by John Mayer called War of My Life. It’s really inspiring, and exactly what I feel right now – there’s a lot of decisions to be made (every day is a new decision isn’t it? But that’s another post…) and somehow, the way he puts it is perfect. Fight on!
