Lead singer Channy Leaneagh describes the song as:
a song wondering about longevity. It’s asking are we made incompatible, is love just a battle? If it is just a conflict I don’t want to be chained down to it or married to it-I just want to improve it and be able to leave it when I want to.
[Chorus]
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
End it all on the bottom
[Verse 1]
Hold back my hair while you kiss my face
When I lay my body down
I erase your place
Hold back my hair while you kiss my face
When I lay my body down
I erase your place
[Bridge]
Who am I?
He heard me
Who am I?
He heard me
Who am I?
Heard my name and it changed that day
[Chorus]
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
End it all on the bottom
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
Chain my name, chain my name
Chain my name, chain my name beside you
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
Chain my name, chain my name
Chain my name, chain my name beside you
[Bridge]
Not this time
Not this time
Please, not this time
Who am I?
He heard me
Who am I?
He heard me
Who am I?
Heard my name and it changed that day
[Chorus]
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
End it all on the bottom
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
Chain my name, chain my name
Chain my name, chain my name beside you
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
Chain my name, chain my name
Chain my name, chain my name beside you
[Verse 2]
Beside you
Not this time
Don't make it easier on me
Have you had enough?
Please
Don't make it easier on me
No, I can't be trusted with love
[Chorus]
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
Chain my name, chain my name
Chain my name, chain my name beside you
So are we made just to fight
All our lives
Chain my name, chain my name
Chain my name, chain my name beside you
[Outro]
