I've never thought it
before now it's all I can see
I don't get no reward
without trading in cruelty
You're asking to suffer oh why
I'll never get to do things together
Might see heaven tonight
might get turned away
There's only one that
you want but that one safe
People want each other oh
But I'll never put
the two things together
Why would you fight for love
Why would you pay to hurt yourself
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Why would you fight for love
Why can't you fight
for something else
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride oh
You're fearful as hell
to what you never had
Walking the streets
throwing good often bad
When I could be someone for you
Somebody who will
hold you together
I give what I can might be too much
I'll give what I'll need
I'll give you love
And all I'm asking
Is for you to put
my whole world together
Why would you fight for love
Why would you pay
to hurt yourself
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Why would you fight for love
Why can't you fight
for something else
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride oh
But your pride
Might see heaven
You might get turned away
There's still nothing to hold onto
But why would I
why would I go that way
Why would I fight for love
Why would I pay to hurt myself
Yeah there's still
nothing to hold onto
But your pride yeah
Why would I fight for love
Why can't I fight
for something else
There's still
nothing to hold onto
But your pride
