True Detective (Music from the HBO Series) - Lera Lynn - The Only Thing Worth Fighting For 

Now I don't have to run that trailer on repeat

Pretty sure I decoded the full lyrics: Waking up is harder than it seems Wandering through these empty rooms of dusty books and quiet dreams. Pictures on the mantle, speak your name. Softly like forgotten tunes, just outside the sound of pain. Weren't we like a pair of thieves, with tumbled locks and broken codes. You can not take that from me, my small reprieves, your heart of gold. Weren't we like a battlefield, locked inside a holy war. You’re lovin’ my due diligence The only thing worth fighting for. Change will come to those who have no fear, but I'm not her, and you never were the kind who kept a rulebook near. What I said was never, what I meant. And now you’ve seen my world in flames my shadow songs, my deep regret. Weren't we like a pair of thieves, with tumbled locks and broken codes. You can not take that from me, my small reprieves, your heart of gold. Weren't we like a battlefield, locked inside a holy war. You’re lovin’ my due diligence; The only thing worth fighting for, The only thing worth fighting for.

Still here 6 years later, still mesmerized by Lera

what an incredible job they did at s2. truly underappricated. its sad to see people compare it to s1 and not accepting its a separet and different story on its own way.

feel like season 2 was less about corruption and more about overcoming depression... or maybe not overcoming it, but channeling it into something righteous. all of the characters seem clinically depressed in different ways. the tone, style, and music all perfectly capture that feeling of emptiness and hopelessness that depressed people feel. it's more realistic than season 1 was, and while season 1 was easier to digest, i liked this one better. it's like if the guy who wrote the wire stopped taking his zoloft.

Why isn't this the intro???? judging by how many times people viewed the teaser, just for the song, you would think this would be a hit as the opener

The song got me starring outside the window, thinkin' 'bout life and shit.

Song got me through some tough times. Thanks for the heavenly voice and soothing lyrics miss Lynn.

Watched through 2020 lockdown, had to finally buy a TV, 49 yrs old.. Must admit I've missed some great series over the years.

Season 2 gets better the more I watch it.

Having a hard time singing along to this after listening to the trailer version 137 times over the last month!

“The enemy won’t reveal itself, Raymond. It stymies my retribution. It’s like blue balls…in your heart.”

This song makes me want strong whiskey and cigarettes.

"Waking up is harder than it seems Wandering through these empty rooms of dusty books and quiet dreams." ... same here .. every morning..

R.I.P Rust Cohle

Finally, the time we've been longing for is over... And it ended majestically, as it will all begin again. This sends chills down my spine...

Why isn`t this the fucking theme song?

We're only 4 episodes in and the mustache is already gone. RIP the mustache.

The season 2 will be rated as classic in a couple of years.Shame too many people hated it for nothing. It kept u wondering till the very end, brought ton of suprising twists and wasnt full of cliches

This is the most eerie and beautiful song I've ever heard. I can't stop listening. I can't wait until the song she sang at the bar in the 1st episode is released as well!

Waking up is harder Than it seems Wandering through these empty rooms of Dusty books and quiet dreams Pictures on a mantel Speak your name Softly like forgotten tunes just Outside the sound of pain Weren't we like a pair of thieves With tumbled locks and broken codes You cannot take that from me My small reprieves your heart of gold Weren't we like a battlefield Locked inside a holy war Your love and my due diligence The only thing worth fighting for Change will come to those who Have no fear But I'm not her, you never were The kind who kept a rule book near What I said was never What I meant And now you've seen my world in flames my Shadow songs my deep regrets

True Detectives has come kind of magic ability to make average actors good. Love it

This second season of True Detective was fucking amazing ! So "Fuck the average viewer" -David Simon Can't wait season three

You can say whatever about the season 2, but we all have to admit that it had the best soundtrack.

God........ this song is amazing, it sends chills down my spine every time I hear it and the chorus plays. Kudos to this chick this song is awesome, seriously!!!

Season 2 was an amazing show

This song is so real... Pls hold on to pains... And remember how strong u were in your depression time. '' so now..

"Change will come for those who have no fear."

This reminds more of the ending of Seven than True Detective, from the quote: "The world is a fine place and worth fighting for" I agree with the second part.

How this song captures the spirit of the series is incredible. Can't wait for June 21th.

I love this song so much. Fits the atmosphere of season 2.

This is probably the best song i've ever heard, this is pure magic. It sound line Lera's voice goes directly to my soul. Thank you lera, Thank you...

This show has infected my mind, just like the first season did. It's a sad thing it all comes down to 90 more minutes. :( It's been a very fun ride.

This song makes my heart ache. Such beauty. The sound, the lyrics, the voice, the music...perfect.

The desperation and anxiety in her voice makes the darkness feel like home.

*My favourite TV Series !! I hope Season 2 won't disappoint us.*

Fantastic. This song is much better than "Nevermind"...

That voice is a superb diamond!!!

This always makes me feel so sad for the good characters in general, especially Ani and Ray, together and separately as individuals. Glad Lera Lynn gets a shinning moment in this show. Btw check out Wolf Like Me ft. Shovels & Rope if you dig this.

Season 2 was amazing !! Slowly crushed my soul :/ ...It was even darker than season 1 that's why I liked it so much.

Listened to a bunch of her stuff because of True detective. She is great but she really nailed it with this song.

When the music is greater than the show.

"Never stop moving." "Babe, oh babe... you stopped moving way back there."

Lera cowrote this song with T Bone Burnett & Roseanne Cash for the HBO Series "True Detectives" which she alone sang on the Show ... Need I say more? - Bart

damn..............the music in this series TrueDetective is stunning...........

The views are shown incorrectly. I, alone have heard it a million times already.

TD'nin 2. sezonunun kazandırdığı en büyük şey : Lera Lynn

This song is a complete work of art!

This should have been the opening song

Season 2 was great

i came across this song on sound cloud and i totally love it !! classic voice , should have more songs like this

wonderful soundtrack... fantastic voice of Lera Lynn.

Such a beautiful song. This is the first song in a long time to actually make me feel.

Season 2 is the best in everyway.

So glad to hear the full version of this song, finally!

you should have some sadness, regrets, dreams which seems unattainable then only you can enjoy and feel it

Underated season of the show

Amazing and very deep lyrics.

[Verse 1] Waking up is harder Than it seems Wandering through these empty rooms of Dusty books and quiet dreams Pictures on a mantel Speak your name Softly like forgotten tunes just Outside the sound of pain [Chorus] Weren't we like a pair of thieves With tumbled locks and broken codes You cannot take that from me My small reprieves Your heart of gold Weren't we like a battlefield Locked inside a holy war Your love and my due diligence The only thing worth fighting for [Verse 2] Change will come to those who Have no fear But I'm not her, you never were The kind who kept a rule book near What I said was never What I meant And now you've seen my world in flames my Shadow songs my deep regrets (Chorus) End.

I love this song... the lyrics are really pertinent to the show.

Is it just me or it is really so addictive to listen this song?

That is some top notch song writing, gave me chills.

Listen to Rosanne Cash’s version of this song. It’s brilliant.

Waking up is harder Than it seems Wandering through these empty rooms of Dusty books and quiet dreams Pictures on a mantel Speak your name Softly like forgotten tunes just Outside the sound of pain [Chorus] Weren't we like a pair of thieves With tumbled locks and broken codes You cannot take that from me My small reprieves your heart of gold Weren't we like a battlefield Locked inside a holy war Your love and my due diligence The only thing worth fighting for Change will come to those who Have no fear But I'm not her, you never were The kind who kept a rule book near What I said was never What I meant And now you've seen my world in flames my Shadow songs my deep regrets [Chorus]

Beatiful series

The trailer did this song no justice. I am a fan

fantastic song! love it.

i love this song, i will listen it forever.

Love this show the music is amazing also so fitting need to get the soundtrack

Change will come to those who have no fear

So Season 2 got 62% from Rotten Tomatoes...my life is over

beautiful

Hauntingly beautiful

Voz maravilhosa!!!

I feel so fuckin alone, in this series almost every character has a deep wound that lead them to do or think important things. The friendships and love are truly real and worth to die for it, its not using emotions like chewing gum and throw it, every word and every moment had a meaning and special place. When I look around, I see fake and empty relationships which has no fuckin meaning and sense, people are giving up for each other for just shitty stuff. They can't handle another person who needs help and love, people always wanted a who ''complete person'' that never had a bothering stuff, never get sadness or bad day, just happy and charming all the time and ready to feed their ego, do the what they want. I can't handle this world, crying alone, looking all day the empty eyes, ordinary lives, senseless relationships, bullshit talks. I feel alone, I feel a blackhole in my chest, I feel like I never get found something worth fighting or die for. This is why this song make me cry, I have nothing to worth fighting for.

This song still inspires. You cannot take that from me..

this is breathtaking

Love this song

i miss true detective! please, come back, true detective!!!

Melhor tema de todos os tempos!

Haunting and Beautiful.......

after the first season it is the greatest serial that i have ever seen

Outstanding..

Deep voice, good song.

que vocal lindo!!

Season 1 set the bar too high, but Season 2 wasn't disappointing either. This chick added to the awesomeness of the show. I hope S3 is this good, can't wait. Amazing voice, amazing lyrics. Cheers.

Omg, this is for my birthday (16 June)? Thanks, what an amazing gift.

I like this song. This is a really good song.

I don't think I could ever get sick of her voice

I heard this song while I was reading the Reader - Bernhard Schlink. I cried a lot. Special is the book came to the chapter when Hanna died

thats a really sad bunch of 120 people that thumbed this down

Très belle chanson ! Bravo !

soo good

fucking loved season 2 !

Second season was subpar with the first..but the music pleased my soul

Guitar: Verse: x02210 / 1x02 / 3x00 / 1x02 Chorus: x02210 / 332100 / xx0231 / 022130

Essa música é maravilhosa!!!!

Does anyone wish this was the theme song instead of the one they put on the show?

Do a general search for lera Lynn and the words to this song they are available online

I love this song, the soundtrack to TD Season 2 is class. Don't know why so many people hated on season 2, granted it wasn't as good as season 1 but still it was full of good performances all round and the story was complex (I don't like to be spoon-fed basic stories that don't make you think, this storyline kept me guessing till the end and I really cared about the characters). For me it's better than S3 but not as good as S1 (but only just)...
