Fourteen years of swinging at a thing that doesn't bleed
Turns out that the fight was never what I need
I used to wake up swearing that today would be the one
Made a promise like a hammer and by midnight it was done
Forty-seven Mondays where I swore I'd make a start
And every single one of them came apart
I'm not winning anymore
I'm not running anymore
I stopped fighting for the win
And I started fighting for the floor
Give me one day, that's the deal
One day standing, one day real
I'm not winning anymore
I'm just here and that's the war
They tell you it's a war and that you're meant to see it through
But I've been losing it for years and there's nothing left to prove
Doesn't mean I'm giving in, it means I'm giving up the fight
Where I swear I've got it handled and I'm wrong by Friday night
So I quit the part that never worked and kept the part that might
And that's the whole strategy tonight
I'm not winning anymore
I'm not running anymore
I stopped fighting for the win
And I started fighting for the floor
Give me one day, that's the deal
One day standing, one day real
I'm not winning anymore
I'm just here and that's the war
One day
Not a year, not a vow
Not a better man I'm promising somehow
Just today
Just the one
Just today
So I'm gonna take the dogs out and I'm gonna feel the Sun
I'm gonna call it a good one if I get through this one
And if tomorrow comes and takes it, I'll be back down on the floor
And I'll get up on the Tuesday like I've done a hundred times before
I don't need it to be over
I just need it to be slow
And I've got somewhere I'm supposed to be
So that's where I'm gonna go
I'm not winning anymore
I'm not running anymore
I stopped fighting for the win
And I started fighting for the floor
Give me one day, that's the deal
One day standing, one day real
I'm not winning anymore
I'm just here and that's the war
I'm just here and that's the war
Just today
(That's the whole thing)
Just today
(That's the whole thing)
Just today
