Love Under Fire

 

Don’t tell me that the good is really gone

There’s nothing to believe in no reason to carry on

There was always strength in you and me

We are still hanging on here though the climb is really steep

In desperation, don’t desert

Our colors are dirty and our hearts may hurt

You can’t change the world if you stay inside

Now's not the time to turn around and hide

 

So hold on, can we talk about what’s going on?

I am here to show you that a heart is strong – oh yeah

And I’ll step out on the wire

When love comes under fire.

 

Did I tell you that I read the news today?

The screams of ignorance made me want to run away

But they can’t chase me out of town

I learned who loved me when my chips were down

Truth isn’t in the loudest voice

It’s in an action. It’s in a choice

In my own way I am an outsider

But I’ll stand with you when love’s under fire

 

Chorus

 

We won’t we won’t be silent We won’t be silenced

We won’t we won’t be silent We won’t be silenced

We won’t we won’t

 

Chorus Chorus

 

When love comes under fire When love comes under fire
