Jim Chastain - Worth the Fight + Made Me Believe (DEMOS)

Somewhere in my memory
I still hold her close to me
The worst night of my life
A pain I'd never felt before
Yet somehow I still can't believe
That I was ever so naive
To think that was the worst thing in
My life that I'd endure
Ruth, I know I gave to you
My word that I'd stay strong
I said I'd lift my head up high
That I could carry on
But Ruth, I am just one man
And how can I stand tall
When all that's left for me
To try to do is crawl
I am a dog in a cage
What didn't I do
Where didn't I go
It all was ripped away
I am confined, I am unfree
And here, remaining only half
The man I used to be
I can't imagine that this is
Worth the fight
After all
I cannot hope
To win
Uncle Temp, there's a
Whole wide world
You've gotta fight
To live in it
Well, it's easier said than done
I think life's already won
Won the fight
How could I
Have ever stood
A chance?
And everyone will
Wonder what
Had caused Gabbett's
Collapse
Well, that fate will
Suit them well
I'd rather die than
Have to tell
I lost the fight!
I remember when you
Touched my life
Words you wrote inspired me to
Find out what life meant
Soon I found out what life
Would mean to me
Once I heard your voice, I knew
I'd never live again
Quite the same as before
You were something to lose
A reason to fight for
And now you decide that it's
Not worth the fight
But I gave you my
Everything even despite
I knew that in the end
We'd fall apart
You made me feel so foolish
Every time you spoke of love
You tried your best to bluff
But now I see I'm not enough
Turns out I was foolish
'Cus while I thought things would change
Times were tough and stayed the same
I held on tight, but you pulled away
And I know it was hard for you
And I know I wasn't right for you
And I know love's hard for you
Despite what you said
What you put in my head
And made me believe
I'd live again
Made me believe that
You'd make amends
Right all your wrongs
Make a fresh start
And learn to love
You made me believe
You'd love me one day
We'd grow old together
Just like the way
I always had hoped
And you'd come around
And learn to love
And then live again
The things I would say
If you could hear them
You've shattered my heart
Broke it in two
Yet I find there's one part
That still beats for you
Reflect all you want
But you'll never change
In the heart where it
Matters most
You deserve what you got
All that pain that life brought
You reap what you sow
I remember when I
Worshipped you
Your words made me feel strong
How could I be so wrong?
I wonder how I could have
Been so blind
Words that I had read
Empty things that you had said to
Make me believe
That I had a chance
To live whole and freely
With love and romance
With days by your side
A fight twice the life
A world so whole
You made me believe
That life was a slope
A battle I'd win if I
Never lost hope
So I never gave in
No, I never backed down
Or gave up
On you…
So, give up on me
I'll power through
How could I have
Been so naive?
I hope you regret
You'll deserve what you get
For what you
Made me believe…
