lyrics

I hold the fort
I'll ease the light
and I'll shut that door
behind you
behind you
oh I'm three steps
and hours
I retreat detached
most every night

I faced the war
but we've found a new fight
and as hard as I tried
the rift
it split
it split us in two
we're on different sides of life
me and you
the years lied to us too.

but I hold the fort
don't you know what that's like
to bed down on the floor
to grow tired
all alone

I might beg for more
but I'd waste my night
so I'll use that door
'cause after tonight
it just feels right
