I'm the typical Running-from-my-battles Keep it quiet No flying off the handle You're tougher Confident encounter You're gonna break the rules Just because you wanna I'm nervous Just keep it on the surface Don't wanna stir the pot Or admit i'm jealous Calm down It's safer on the ground If it doesn't keep the peace Don't say it out loud I wanted to resist this Love affair with conflict I got my share of wounds I don't need them from you No matter how i fight this You've showed me that you're worth it So let's start a war ‘cause you're worth fighting for C'mon over and we'll settle it right Put your dukes up ‘cause i'm ready to fight For you I'll fight for you Don't want the pain but i'll take it stride Put your dukes up ‘cause i'm ready to fight For you Don't want a Big ego They tell us when we're little It's better to be quiet and to not cause trouble Sit pretty Keep everybody happy Don't speak up, you don't wanna be bossy You came along Broke it all down You saw fire and you didn't wanna put it out No crutches I'm rolling with the punches We flicker like a flame burning everything it touches I wanted to resist this Love affair with conflict I got my share of wounds I don't need them from you No matter how i fight this You've showed me that you're worth it So let's start a war ‘cause you're worth fighting for C'mon over and we'll settle it right Put your dukes up ‘cause i'm ready to fight For you I'll fight for you Don't want the pain but i'll take it stride Put your dukes up ‘cause i'm ready to fight For you If i turn away now Do i lose this battle? Will you stay around If i back down? If i back down? Or do you wanna fair fight Because i'm your equal? You wanna get in my mind Know what i'm like, oh I wanted to embrace this Boring lack of conflict But that was all before C'mon over and we'll settle it right Put your dukes up ‘cause i'm ready to fight For you I'll fight for you Don't want the pain but i'll take it stride Put your dukes up ‘cause i'm ready to fight For you
