  • You gonna fight all your life
    Without a foe in sight
    Yeah you’re a trigger
    Just waiting for any hand to pull tight

    No weapons in sight
    But you bring ‘em out and it’s only
    You who’s bleeding through the night
    Honey you ain’t got no right

    I hope someday real soon
    You’ll see there’s nothing you need to prove

    Think you been given lemons all your life
    And so you squeeze the sour and burn it into their eyes
    But you don’t know that
    Good fruit like yours is hard to come by

    I hope you wake up real soon
    ‘Cause you got a way to turn a whole lot of love into a bruise
    I hope you wake up real soon
    ‘Cause I can’t bear to hear you being so cruel
    I hope you wake up real soon
    ‘Cause you got a way to turn a whole lot of love into a bruise
    I hope you wake up real soon
    ‘Cause then one day you’ll see who’s really fightin’ you
