Fight to Forget Lyrics
You’re a monster in my mind
You’re the one I can’t leave behind
You crawled inside, I watched you die
Did you think that you could bury me
Your love is a lie
I will fight to forget
Your love is a knife
I will die to forget
Did you get what you want from me
You weren’t the one that I thought you’d be
Everything it cost, everything I lost
Did you think that you could erase me
Your love is a lie
I will fight to forget
Your love is a knife
I will die to forget
I will fight to forget you
I will die to forget you
Let me go, let me go
You’re abandoned
You’re broken down
Your sickness, blame it on me
Your hopelessness
Your insanity
You’re screaming, blame it on me
Your love is a lie
I will fight to forget
Your love is a knife
I would die to forget
I will fight to forget you
I will die to forget you
You’re the one I can’t leave behind
You crawled inside, I watched you die
Did you think that you could bury me
I will fight to forget
Your love is a knife
I will die to forget
You weren’t the one that I thought you’d be
Everything it cost, everything I lost
Did you think that you could erase me
I will fight to forget
Your love is a knife
I will die to forget
I will fight to forget you
I will die to forget you
Let me go, let me go
You’re broken down
Your sickness, blame it on me
Your hopelessness
Your insanity
You’re screaming, blame it on me
I will fight to forget
Your love is a knife
I would die to forget
I will fight to forget you
I will die to forget you

In my opinion this song is about addiction and the struggle that follows during recovery.
The addiction is the "monster in my mind"
"Your love is a lie" refers to the feeling of love felt when your high and how it's a lie that lead(s) to addiction.
"I will fight to forget" he is basically saying ignorance is bliss, that he will fight the cravings to forget the false love the high provides
The verses are conversations with a personification of his addiction
I think this song is about sin. It is a monster inside of you that you can't escape from. Sin is trying to destroy you from the inside. The "love" of sin is the pleasure that it brings you in the moment. Ultimately, this love is an empty lie. In this life, we fight against the sin, and when we die, we are finally freed from it in heaven.
