Anything For Love

Throughout the years I thought we were a team

I didn't put up a fight tried not to be mean

But I was hiding

Couldn't let you find me

Thought I could be tough and laugh it off

You know what I mean

But once in a while there's a quiet voice

"Can I set the weight down, do I have a choice?"

I critique and I judge, and it's all my own

So I remain sitting on my throne

But

I don't have to do anything

With every step

With every breath

I don't have to fix

I don't have to fight

If I want I can stay up and dance all night

You can let me be or you can let me go

It's easier said than done I know

But I don't have to do anything

For love

I look to my idols to see who to be

I never look at myself and say "oh, that's me"

So I hate them

Because I'm not them

And they've clearly got it figured out so much better than me

But once in a while there's a quiet voice

"Can I set that weight down, do I have a choice?"

I critique and I judge, and it's all my own

So I remain sitting on my throne

But

I don't have to do anything

With every step

With every breath

I don't have to fix

I don't have to fight

If I want I can stay up and dance all night

You can let me be or you can let me go

It's easier said than done I know

But I don't have to do anything

For love

My love is more than a resume

Not a checklist or a game to play

But I second guess and the walls come up

Can't stop filling up someone else's cup

There will come a day I will deepen the grooves

I will open my heart, it'll go down smooth

We'll create it

We'll celebrate it

I will believe and I will receive with nothing to prove

And once in a while there's a quiet voice

"Can I set the weight down? I still have a choice"

I critique and I judge, and it's all my own

I can get my ass up off that throne

But

I don't have to do anything

With every step

With every breath

I don't have to fix

I don't have to fight

If I want I can stay up and dance all night

You can let me be or you can let me go

It's easier said than done I know

But I don't have to do anything

With every step

With every breath

I don't have to fix

I don't have to fight

If I want I can stay up and dance all night

You can let me be or you can let me go

Easier said than done I know

But I don't have to do anything

I don't have to do anything

I don't have to do anything

For love
