Fighting Chance

You go to sit down at this table

Yeah and where everything looks fine

Till you go to put your arms down and realize

That one of them is just a little too shy

So you're bending over now with your folded up

Matchbook

Gonna try to steady yourself

Waitress comes and puts your coffee down

You just spill it all over yourself

If this is as hard as it gets

You've got a fighting chance

So you think to yourself if I start my day over

Yeah starting right now

Then you grab your to go cup you got for free

You feel a familiar hand on your shoulder

Turn around, it's your ex

Smiling like she never left you

For your best friend three years before

You think what now

All of your weight on the door

If this is as hard as it gets

You've got a fighting chance

So you push off, yeah towards your apartment

On the corner above that liquor store

28 days away from the drink

Life is testing you more than you've been tested before

You are the bravest, newest person I've met

All of the answers are in you

Even if you haven't had the questions yet

You are the bravest, newest person I've met

And if this is as hard as it gets today

Yeah you've got a fighting chance

Cause I know it's hard

Your skin against this city

With all of your old friends at the bar

So if it's any consolation to you

I think fragile suits you
