Love Fight

[Verse 1] We talk in careful sentences Like every word might bleed Standing on opposite edges Of what we both still need Your eyes say don’t come closer Your hands say don’t let go We’re masters of pretending What we already know [Pre-Chorus] Every silence is a weapon Every touch a white flag raised We don’t know how to surrender So we stay here in the flames [Chorus] It’s a love fight Hearts in the crossfire tonight We swing with words we don’t mean Then hold each other tight It’s a love fight No winners left in sight We’re too proud just to forgive Too lost to say goodbye Yeah we hurt… But we don’t leave the love fight [Verse 2] You trace circles on my shoulder Like you’re mapping where we broke I laugh at something empty Just to hide the things I won’t We could end this in a moment Just admit we’re scared to fall But pride is louder than mercy And mercy’s barely there at all [Pre-Chorus] Every doorway feels like leaving Every goodbye feels like truth Still we reach across the damage Like we’ve got something to lose [Chorus] It’s a love fight Hearts in the crossfire tonight We swing with words we don’t mean Then hold each other tight It’s a love fight No winners left in sight We’re too proud just to forgive Too lost to say goodbye Yeah we hurt… But we don’t leave the love fight [Bridge – stripped, close, almost whispered] If I let my armor fall Would you catch me… or let me drop? If you said you needed me Would the war inside us stop? Maybe love ain’t gentle Maybe love’s this bruise-blue light Two broken people choosing To stay… and call it right [Final Chorus – wider, emotional lift] It’s a love fight Tears in the silence tonight We break just enough to feel Then pull each other tight It’s a love fight Still burning in the night We don’t know how to heal But we don’t know how to die So we stay… In the fire… In the truth we can’t deny… Yeah we’re losing… But we’re breathing… Inside this love fight. [Outro – slow, fading] Don’t say sorry… I won’t say it too… Just come closer… Like we always do… No surrender… No clear right… Just you and me… In a love fight.
