I Tried To Fight It

Well, this is the difficult life I've chosen I've been holding on to this heart that's frozen I tried to fight away the tears from my eyes You have made your wave of goodbyes I've been alone for a very long time It's time to shine, my love of mine Forgive and forget the mistakes of the past The fears and cheers of our lives are oh so vast The winter wind keeps on blowing The mesmerizing moon keeps glowing Fade away, darkness from my heart of stone I'm just a lonely stranger in the woods, all alone Comfort and bliss should be completely ours We should have shared our strengths and powers I should have tried to fight it - the awful feeling of grief I should have tried to hide it - the remedy of my pure relief I tried to fight it... I'm breaking bit by bit I tried to fight it... I see your eyes all alit Fight away the chaotic commotion in your mind Don't beat around the bush or you'll end up blind Good times have made us happier than a reindeer in the snow Times spent with you is priceless and that's what I want you to know The trees are dancing in the breeze The snow is simply glimmering at ease I am a sucker for joy and peace this winter I tried to fight the urge to ruin the fun any further I tried to fight it I tried to hide it I tried to will it all away I tried to sweep it all away But, the feelings are still there You are here without a care I love you, but it's a cold, cold friendship I adore you, but it's a bittersweet relationship I tried to fight away the tears I tried to chase away my fears I tried, but I can't be in your black boots of sheer sulk I tried, but your package of sorrows are in a big bulk The smell of candy canes and mint fill the freezing air The wintery night has caressed the snow of despair It's a wonderful time spent with you in my arms of zealous delight I'm sorry that I couldn't fight away the agony in my heart of might I have been wrong about you I thought you'd do things you're not suppose to I tried to fight it, but I let out a scream of "let me go!" I see your mouth of wit shiver and say "Stay quiet and low!" I tried to hide it... But, I must admit It's a cruel, cold world out there But, instead of listening to me, you live life without a care Honey, I wish you the best in all you do Sorry - not all midnight wishes come true I tried everything to cheer you on I cried these tears from dusk to dawn Frozen in place, I've noticed that you are gone The urge to move on is but a gracious hope in heart...a battle not won... The act of helpfulness is where the heart is The road to recovery is where our haven-like home is I tried to fight it - the thought of giving in to giving up so easily I tried to hide it, but our secrets were revealed hastily
