The Fight
Jack Mazzoni Lyrics

She got a bad reputation
People speak badly of her

She takes the long way home
She avoids going home quickly, maybe because of personal issues

And all of my friends seen her naked
People might have seen her vulnerable or exposed in some way

Or so the story goes
This information might not be accurate or could be exaggerated

Mistakes we all make them
Everyone has made mistakes

But they won't let it go, no
People are judging her despite her trying to move past her mistakes

She's got a bad reputation
Her reputation is not positive

But I know what they don't
The artist knows more about her than what others believe

And I don't care what they say about you baby
The artist doesn't value other people's opinions about her

They don't know what you've been through
People don't understand what she's been through

Trust me, I could be the one to treat you like a lady
The singer believes he could treat her better than others have

Let me see what's underneath, all I need is you
The artist wants to understand her on a deeper level and only needs her for that

Nobody gets too close
People don't get close to her emotionally or physically

A sight of a soul when it's breaking
The singer sees her emotional pain clearly

Making my heart grow cold
Her pain affects the singer's emotions negatively

And into the deeper she's sinking
She's trapped in her pain and it's overwhelming her

I'm begging her please don't let go
The artist wants to help her and doesn't want her to give up

But she's all that... all I want, though
Despite her troubles, the singer is still interested in her

Nobody knows the way that I know her, said
The singer feels like he understands her better than anyone else

Nobody knows the way that time has shown us it
The artist believes that his history with her gives him a unique understanding of her situation

She got it bad, she got it bad
She's going through a hard time and is struggling
