I’m fighting the ‘second’ old me
\nWhen it comes to loving you<\/p>\n
The old me that would
\nEasily give up
\nWhen things got a little
\nToo tough<\/p>\n
I’m trying to keep
\nThe original me alive
\nThe “Me” that had the will to fight<\/p>\n
Before
\nI was made to commit
\nSuicide
\nTo the love I had inside<\/p>\n
When it comes to loving you
\nI continue to fight
\nFor something I see
\nCan be a lasting thing<\/p>\n
I can say forever
\nBut forever really isn’t a thing
\nBecause forever only lasts
\nAs long as we have enough time to blink<\/p>\n
So
\nI just want to love you
\nUntil my heart
\nDecides to take its last beat…<\/p>\n
