Jimmy Eat World - Firefight Lyrics

This is where our diligence has led
The waves roll in to claim our patient steps
Can we become more than just ourselves?
And leave the sand our want, our will, our doubt

It's firefight, I won't run
There's spit and spite all through my blood
For you and me there's nowhere left to hide
Except you and me there's no one else alive

This is now the moment after next
Are these still the eyes of a temptress
Why open a door if you won't go?
Don't ask twice if you don't want to know

It's firefight, I won't run
There's spit and spite all through my blood
For you and me there's nowhere left to hide
Except you and me there's no one else alive

Is there an answer?
And if it's an honest one, honestly worth its question
There's no question
The city as my witness (the city as my witness)
I am who I want to be but you could be anything (could be anything)
Just be anything and with me

Love is quartz and breath the second hand
If you let go then that's where time will stand

It's firefight, I won't run
There's spit and spite all through my blood
For you and me there's nowhere left to hide
Except you and me there's no one else alive

It's firefight, I won't run
There's spit and spite all through my blood
For you and me there's nowhere left to hide
Except you and me there's no one else alive
