Why We Fight - Fast Romantics

Although I couldn’t afford it

I bought a beat up guitar

I worked 'til four in the mornin'

In a broken down bar

This is why we fight

This is why we fight

I know we’re all out of money

Don’t let the billionaires win

We ain’t got much, but we’re hungry

It’s burning under our skin

This is why we fight

This is why we fight

Oh, come on darlin'

There’s a war on our TV

But it’s all right

In our bedrooms we are free

Deep in the guts of me

I love you violently

Until the dawn’s early light

This is why we fight

This is why we fight

Come put your hand on my heartbeat

There is a marching band in me

It sings a national anthem

For an island in the sea

Where everybody’s somebody

Where everybody’s gone free

This is why we fight

Now every morning when I wake up

I put another bullet in my coffee cup

Oh, come on darlin'

There’s a war on our TV

But it’s all right

In our bedrooms we are free

Deep in the guts of me

I love you violently

Until the dawn’s early light

This is why we fight

This is why we fight

This is why we fight

This is why we fight
