I Will Fight

This song is my simple song. It's long, but it's simple, and I really love how it turned out. Inspiration-wise I think I'm quoting "I Need You" and "Dear Jack", both sung by Andrew McMahon. I really got an inspiration from their simplicity and their strong messages, especially "You were a fighter, you were the kid against the world, the world that couldn't seem to keep you down" in "Dear Jack". I don't think mine's of quite that calibre, but I love it.

Oh, oh my friends,
This night is coming to an end,
Unnoticed.
We’ll stay and
I, I will fight.

And I will fight for the end
When we’re going down.
And I will fight for the world and its sorrow –
The light will shine through tomorrow.
I will fight.

Dear, dear love,
As we spin above the room,
Oblivious.
They’ll try to shake us so
I, I will fight.

And I will fight for the end
When we’re going down.
And I will fight for the world and its sorrow –
The light will shine through tomorrow.
I will fight.

Sweet, sweet time,
You take from us our many loves.
It seems your control’s
Out of reach so
I, I will fight.

And I will fight for the end
When we’re going down.
And I will fight for the world and its sorrow –
The light will shine through tomorrow.
I will fight.

Great, great fate,
This is the fate I choose,
So willingly.
So willingly
I, I will fight.

And I will fight for the end
When we’re going down.
And I will fight for the world and its sorrow –
The light will shine through tomorrow.
I will fight.

Good friend, you’re so brave,
And the sun lights your room.
I, I will fight,
And I will fight for you.

I will fight.
