You Give Me the Reason

As the world we’ve known
Comes crumbling down
Every truth attacked
With alternative facts
I wanna hide away
Find an escape
And I think I would
If it weren’t for you
You give me the reason
To fight
You give me
The inspiration
You give me
All the love in the world
Which gives me the strength
To fight, fight, fight
As the wrecking ball
Continues to strike
Pain takes over
More and more lives
I struggle with
Hopelessness
So I’ll hold you, love
Tighter and tighter
You give me the reason
To fight
You give me
The inspiration
You give me
All the love in the world
Which gives me the strength
To fight, fight, fight
To all the open-hearts and open-minds
Who reject demagogues
And believe in love
We will not live in fear
We will not let hate win
We will fight until the end
And I’ll have your back
If they come
I’ll have your back
I have your back
And I’ll have your back
When they come
I’ll have your back
I have your back
You give me the reason
To fight
You give me
The inspiration
You give me
All the love in the world
Which gives me the strength
To fight
You give me the reason
To fight
You give me
The inspiration
You give me
All the love in the world
Which gives me the strength
To fight, fight, fight.

Kara Square recommends:
Mourning Time
by Team Smile and Nod
This is my band's second album (released in 2011). It's an electro folk pop album that explores the constantly morphing state of mourning in an oddly uplifting and quirky manner.
