Fighting the Inevitable
[Him]
We're standing here in the wreckage,
Trying to salvage what's left of us.
I keep pretending it's not over,
But deep down,( I know we're lost.)
Every word feels like a battle,
Every glance a silent plea.
I want to fight for what we had,
But it's harder to believe( in you and me.)
[Him]
I'm holding on to memories,
But they're slipping through my hands like sand.
[Both]
We're fighting the inevitable,
Clinging to shadows of our love.
Every tear, (every argument,)
Feels like a push and pull from above.
We're holding on to a fading light,
But it's burning out,( we're losing the fight.)
We're fighting the inevitable,
But maybe it's time to let go tonight.
[Her]
I see the doubts in your eyes,
And I feel the weight of the unsaid.
We're dancing on this fragile line,
But every step (just leads to dread.)
I wish we could turn back time,
To the moments that felt so real.
But now it's just a whispered promise,
A heart that struggles to heal.
[Her]
I'm scared to face the truth we've built,
But I can't keep pretending it's not real.
[Both]
We're fighting the inevitable,
Clinging to shadows of our love.
Every tear, (every argument,)
Feels like a push and pull from above.
We're holding on to a fading light,
But it's burning out,( we're losing the fight.)
We're fighting the inevitable,
But maybe it's time to let go tonight.
[Both]
The harder we try, (the further we drift,)
Caught in a cycle, (searching for a gift.)
We're lost in the echoes of what used to be,
But it's time to face the truth, you and me.
[Both]
We're fighting the inevitable,
Clinging to shadows of our love.
Every tear,( every argument,)
Feels like a push and pull from above.
We're holding on to a fading light,
But it's burning out, (we're losing the fight.)
We're fighting the inevitable,
But maybe it's time to let go tonight.
[Both]
Fighting the inevitable,( we're losing ground,)
Caught in the silence,( can we turn it around)
Maybe it's time to finally see,
That sometimes love just isn't meant to be.
