Jimmy Eat World - Firefight Lyrics

This is where our diligence has lead 
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, and I, 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 the door if you won't go? 
Don't ask twice if you don't wanna know 

It's firefight, and I, I won't run 
There is 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 wanna be, but you could be anything (you could be anything) 
Just be anything here with me 

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

It's firefight, and I, I won't run 
There is 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, and I, I won't run 
There is 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
