Verse 1
You know it’s not in you to fight - 8
Yet you feel angry all the time - 8
You know they don’t treat you right - 7
But you can’t seem to make up your mind - 9
Pre-Chorus
To do the right thing and stand up for yourself - 11
You wanna try and play the hand you were dealt - 12
But you gotta know, the deck is stacked against you- 12
Chorus
So it’s fight or flight, doesn’t matter if you think you’re right
Yes it’s fight or flight, you’re wrong no matter what you do tonight
The line between love and hate just got blurred
Take the high road no matter how much it hurts
In fight or flight, in fight or flight
Solo
Verse 2
Didn’t always feel like you were at war - 10
There were happier times not so long ago - 11
Now here you go walking out the door – 9
Feeling empty, lost without a soul - 9
Pre-Chorus
How’d we get to this, it was never our plan – 11
We were so in love when it all began - 10
But now it feels like your hearts being ripped right from you
Chorus
So it’s fight or flight, doesn’t matter if you think you’re right
Yes it’s fight or flight, you’re wrong no matter what you do tonight
The line between love and hate just got blurred
Take the high road no matter how much it hurts
In fight or flight, in fight or flight
In fight or flight, in fight or flight
