And I’m hardly one who should talk
But my love your words have become so short
And my thoughts they’ve become so long
And the longer I leave them
The further they run

Are you quietly building a fort
Storing up all your evenings
in case of a war

Well I’ve lost all of my fight
I have lost all of my fight

And I’m searching the spaces between
for words that I missed that I thought I had seen
And I’m sure there is something to find
Is it there in your fort
Does it live in your mind

Are you quietly hiding from time
Hoping she slips up
and leaves off the light

Have you lost all of your fight
Have we lost all of our fight
Have we lost all of our fight
