They told me I'm a juiced-up, worn-out sadsack And they can't figure out what I'm trying to do here Except stand around and be a dick But for God's sake, I won't lie I'll say it all and I'll be right It can't be helped, it can't be scrubbed out From the floorboards to the blacklights I'll fight first, I'll fight first I'll fight first, I'll fight first I'll fight first, I'll fight first I'll fight first And the calls for transparency At the bus stop, on the doormat Well, I saw through all that I found, I found holes in that From the basest of all lives You swore you'd never cry And the times will get harder now And push us further down You say you're always right And we're always wrong I heard, I heard you tried I heard, I heard you're gone It's how it always goes And never had to go All the substance seeping out From the storeroom of my mind All the colours that I wanted to hold And the fog that grows inside That I can't get out my mind Can you tell me what I used to know? We'll fight first, we'll fight first We'll fight first, we'll fight first We'll fight first, we'll fight first We'll fight first, we'll fight first We'll fight first, we'll fight first We'll fight first, we'll fight first We'll fight first, we'll fight first We'll fight first, we'll fight first
