Fighting For Air Lyrics by Bernard Fanning

Brutal Dawn

2017

How’d we end up here?
Like souvenirs from another time
Fighting for air
A light is castin' shadows
That darken my despair
Through that fading light
You follow me there
I got a mind to say how fine it is to be your fool
I’m marking time 'til I get back to you
I can't fight the shakin' in my mind
(Shakin' in my mind)
I’m marking time 'til I get back to you
The echoin' empty space in your heart
Where my love used to hide
Is closing fast
And every time I followed you into the dark
It chilled me to the marrow
Left me fighting for air
I got a mind to say how fine it is to be your fool
I’m marking time 'til I get back to you
I can't fight the shakin' in my mind
'Cause I'm no good when you're gone
I'm no good when you're gone
How’d I end up here like a mutineer?
Against my pride
Fighting for air
So lay down by my side one more time before I go
Let our hearts collide
Let our secrets be known
