FIGHT
Sons and Daughters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It never ends
I keep tight and
My wonder is less
Oh Oh why
I'm questioning
I'll never ask
Your perfect address
Oh Oh why
You can look inside
This calling curse
The lines are drawn
This is getting worse
Oh Oh why
Now I can tell
Your looking now
One comes one comes
To find us out
Oh Oh why
The lyrics to Sons and Daughters' song "Fight" explore the theme of struggle and the relentless fight against different obstacles in life. The lines "I fought them all, it never ends" convey the feeling of being caught in a never-ending cycle of fighting against the odds, whether they are external or internal. The singer acknowledges that despite their efforts to hold their ground and stay strong, their willpower and clarity diminish over time. The lines "I keep tight and my wonder is less" seem to suggest that the struggle takes a toll on the singer, and they are gradually becoming disoriented and losing their sense of wonder.
The second stanza in the lyrics depicts a sense of resignation and acceptance of one's fate. The lines "I'll never ask so you can sleep in your perfect address" hint that the singer has given up on questioning why things are the way they are and has come to terms with their place in the world. The lines "You can look inside this calling curse" appear to suggest that the singer is also struggling with some internal demons, but is determined to keep fighting. The last stanza indicates that the battle is getting harder, and the singer is feeling the pressure. The lines "Now I can tell you're looking now, one comes, one comes to find us out" create a sense of impending doom and suggest that the singer is preparing for a final showdown.

I fought them all
I have struggled against all obstacles and challenges
It never ends
The challenges keep coming and there is no end in sight
I keep tight and
I remain strong despite the adversity
My wonder is less
The world seems less wondrous to me now
