My Constant Battle
She seeks for freedom
It's a constant battle inside
For me to let her go
All I want to do is protect her
And keep her safe
But it's a constant battle
When I have to tell her no
I'm tryin to come around
And understand what she wants
What she needs
It's a constant battle inside
I'm fighting myself to let go
I try to tell myself that I once was there
But it's a constant battle
For her to understand that no means no
So what it comes down to, I guess
Is that I have to use good judgement
And trust what she says
But again, it's a constant battle
As her word is all she has to offer
But in order for the battle to cease
I have to take her on her word
And let her go
It's a constant battle inside
For me to let her go
All I want to do is protect her
And keep her safe
But it's a constant battle
When I have to tell her no
I'm tryin to come around
And understand what she wants
What she needs
It's a constant battle inside
I'm fighting myself to let go
I try to tell myself that I once was there
But it's a constant battle
For her to understand that no means no
So what it comes down to, I guess
Is that I have to use good judgement
And trust what she says
But again, it's a constant battle
As her word is all she has to offer
But in order for the battle to cease
I have to take her on her word
And let her go
