Fighter

You say I'm a fighter, but I never fought for nothing,
Just a wanderer lost in the fray, always on the run.
I could be a centurion, but I always keep running,
In the heat of the battle, I'm the one who's shunning.

My name means warrior, but I ain't ever felt much like one,
I've been chasing shadows, under the setting sun.
I never fought for anything, except where I begun,
But for now I'm staring at myself and making fun

I've been through the fire, but I never claimed the flame,
I've stumbled through the darkness, seeking someone to blame.
I've faced a thousand battles, but I never stood my ground,
I've been a silent soldier, lost and never found.

My name means warrior, but I ain't ever felt much like one,
I've been chasing shadows, under the setting sun.
I never fought for anything, except where I begun,
But for now I'm staring at myself and making fun
