Lyrics The Near Future X. Fighting On - I Fight Dragons

The Near Future X. Fighting On

I’ve never been the one to win it all
To be the champion
I always get in my own way
But I get up again each time I fall
I keep on going
I guess that’s all there is to me
Maybe they were right, maybe I was wrong
But I put up a fight, and
I feel like I’m right where I belong
'Cause if you’re next to me
That’s all I really need
We’ll keep fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
We’ll keep fighting on
Long after the rest have wept and gone
We’ll be fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
Every morning I remind myself
I don’t know all the answers
I gotta learn that that’s ok
I’m slowly turning into someone else
As I get older
Someone who’d I rather be
Maybe they were right, maybe I was wrong
But I put up a fight, and
I feel like I’m right where I belong
'Cause if you’re next to me
That’s all I really need
We’ll keep fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
We’ll keep fighting on
Long after the rest have wept and gone
We’ll be fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
The girl starts walking towards the boy, but her
Grandpa puts a hand on her shoulder to stop her
She shrugs his hand off and runs to the boy
Throwing her arms around him and kissing him
As they kiss, the blue light flares to life once more
From the girl, entwining around the two of them
And settling back into them both
After a long moment, the girl turns back to her
Grandpa, who looks at her and shakes his head
He raises his hand, and suddenly a shimmering rip
Appears in the fabric of space and time
He steps through and turns around, waiting to see
What the boy and the girl are going to do
Maybe they were right, maybe I was wrong
But I put up a fight, and
I feel like I’m right where I belong
'Cause if you’re next to me
That’s all I really need
We’ll keep fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
We’ll keep fighting on
Long after the rest have wept and gone
We’ll be fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
We’ll keep fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
We’ll keep fighting on
Long after the rest have wept and gone
We’ll be fighting on, We’ll keep fighting on
The boy and the girl walk towards the portal
Holding hands.
When they are directly in front of
It, they pause and turn to look at one another.
The girl smiles.
The boy smiles
And they step through
