"We Fight" broke a long silence. Released in November 2017 as the first single from Crooked Shadows, Dashboard Confessional's seventh album, it was the band's first new song in more than eight years, the last originals having come on 2009's Alter the Ending. Chris Carrabba wrote it alone, and he has framed it as a song about convictions worth defending.
It started out personal. Carrabba told Zane Lowe on Beats 1 that the thing worth fighting for was the music scene he came up in, a community that took in a kid who never fit in at school. Then came Donald Trump's election in 2016, and Carrabba watched the new administration's regressive policies appear to roll back years of progress.
