Backfire Lyrics by JordinLaine

Unfolding

2021

[Verse 1]
On the surface everything seems fine
But I'm nervous when the day turns to night
Is it worth it to wander from the light
To be ambushed and raided and captured alive
[Pre-Chorus]
Well we do it for the fame
We do it for the pride
We do it just to say
That we got our heads on right
But the one who's head sits highest always rolls
[Chorus]
Ring around the rosie
In a never-ending style
Slash and burn and fill the world
With your broken, crooked smile
Take your turn to show your worth
With all your little trials
I'll be out of sight
For the backfire
[Verse 2]
It's a hard test
To go against the breeze
To find your purpose
In the middle of a battlefield
So pick a target
Drop your sword and shield
And watch all of your charges
And all your defenses set free
[Pre-Chorus]
Well we do it for the fame
We do it for the pride
We do it just to say
That we got our heads on right
But the one who's head sits highest always rolls
[Chorus]
Ring around the rosie
In a never-ending style
Slash and burn and fill the world
With your broken, crooked smile
Take your turn to show your worth
With all your little trials
I'll be out of sight
For the backfire
(Ooooh)
Take what you want
I'm laying it down
I'm taking the fall
Yeah, I'm getting out
(Ooooh)
Ring around the rosie
In a never-ending style
Slash and burn and fill the world
With your broken, crooked smile
Take your turn to show your worth
With all your little trials
I'll be out of sight
For the backfire
