I'd Rather Fight (Than Die)
©Jerry Axson

If I ever get out of this cage
I’m not sure what I’ll do
One thing’s for certain
I won’t crawl back to you
Years spent under your thumb
Beneath the weight of your eyes
Has left me a feral dog
Who’d rather fight than die

And I – I - I
I’d rather fight than die
It’s worth the try
And I – I - I
I’d rather fight than die
Because it’s my life
It’s my life

Running down a dark path
Beneath a full moons’ light
Feel the hot air sting my lungs
As I press deep into this night
I can feel the pain slide away
Like peeling off dead skin
Transforms me into something new
And I don’t know how it will end
