The Only Thing Worth Fighting For

Singer:Lera Lynn

Album:True Detective - Music From the HBO Series

Waking up is harder than it seems

Wandering through these empty rooms of dusty books and quiet dreams

Pictures on a mantel speak your name

Softly like forgotten tunes just outside the sound o' pain

Weren't we like a pair of thieves with tumbled locks and broken codes?

You cannot take that from me — my small reprieves

your heart of gold

Weren't we like a battlefield locked inside our holy war?

Your love and my due diligence — the only thing worth fighting for

Change will come to those who have no fear

But I'm not her

you never were the kind who kept a rule book near

What I said was never what I meant

And now you've seen my world in flames

my shadow songs

my deep regret

Weren't we like a pair of thieves with tumbled locks and broken codes?

You cannot take that from me — my small reprieves

your heart of gold

Weren't we like a battlefield locked inside our holy war?

Your love and my due diligence — the only thing worth fighting for
