Worth Fighting For
Love's Battle: A Melodic Odyssey of Regret and Redemption
Lyrics
By shot three I've got the fortitude
Expressing resilience or determination after facing challenges.
to move past the prelude
Moving beyond the introduction or beginning phase.
and explain how this escalates.
Describing the progression of a situation.
I left her with an incomplete goodbye,
Left someone without a proper farewell.
then caught the midnight flight,
Caught a late-night flight.
the cliche plain that took me away
Took a cliché plane that distanced the speaker from their loved one.
from my baby that night.
Reflecting on leaving a significant other that night.
And it might be naive
Considering the possibility of being naive.
cursing the day I left,
Regretting the day of departure.
the day you got fed up and said...
Referring to the day the partner became fed up and expressed dissatisfaction.
If I told you this was foolishness
Questioning the wisdom of the speaker's actions.
would you throw in the towel tonight.
Asking if admitting foolishness would lead to giving up.
I shrugged to confess probably
Indicating uncertainty and a probable agreement with the notion of foolishness.
and she told me I was right.
Acknowledging the correctness of the speaker's assessment by the partner.
She said I'll say this once more,
Partner emphasizing the importance of the situation with a repetition of advice.
it's just a waste of time unless
Stating that the effort is only worthwhile if it's significant.
it's worth fighting for.
She said distance and relationship
Discussing the challenge of maintaining a relationship over a distance.
in the same sentence
Noting the lack of interest in addressing distance and relationships together.
and she could tell I wasn't interested.
Highlighting self-love to the extent of overshadowing the partner's feelings.
I was in love enough with myself
Expressing difficulty in finding the right words to communicate.
for the both of us,
Both partners avoiding direct communication or confrontation.
we beat around the bush
Engaging in indirect communication, avoiding direct discussions.
as my mouth looked
Struggling to articulate thoughts verbally.
for the proper words to leave.
Searching for appropriate words to say.
By last call I'm irrational...
Being emotionally unstable or irrational late at night.
scrolling through my phone
Frantically searching for the partner's contact details on the phone.
trying to find your name.
Desiring to communicate with the partner.
I want to say the things
Expressing a wish to say things that may not reflect true feelings.
that I don't mean,
Intending to make promises that may be impossible to fulfill.
and make promises that I can't keep.
Conveying a struggle with expressing oneself sincerely.
The message beeps and
Receiving a message and still searching for the right words.
I guess I'm still looking
Continuing the struggle to find appropriate words to communicate.
for the proper words to leave.
