Crossfire Lyrics by Otherwise

Defy

2019

[Intro]
Crossfire (Fire)
Fire, fire
Fire, fire
Crossfire (Fire)

[Verse 1]
No you’re not gonna waste my time
No you’re not gonna change my mind
No I’m not your bottom line
This runs deeper than dollar signs
Every deal with the devil’s the same
They all want credit but nobody takes blame
Dark money games
Selling me the same old lie with a different name
Same shit, different day
This tired old song is so overplayed
From New York City back to LA
Welcome to the masquerade

[Chorus]
I’m caught in the
I’m caught in the crossfire
Dancing on a tripwire
Throwing up a toast to the end of the world (The world)
Preaching to a deaf choir
Everyone’s a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire

[Verse 2]
Now you want me to change my name
Now you want me to change my face
Now you want me to learn my place
But I’d rather learn from my mistakes
Gotta fight just to tell the truth
Gotta steal just to make it new
I never knew, it takes a hit
To find out you're bulletproof

[Chorus]
I’m caught in the
I’m caught in the crossfire
Dancing on a tripwire
Throwing up a toast to the end of the world (The world)
Preaching to a deaf choir
Everyone’s a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire
Crossfire, crossfire

[Bridge]
Past the point, no return
I’m caught in the crossfire
Watching all bridges burn
I’m caught in the crossfire
So what do you do?
Come on and tell me
So what do you do?
Come on and tell me

[Outro]
I’m caught in the
I'm caught in the
I’m caught in the crossfire
Dancing on a tripwire
Throwing up a toast to the end of the world (The world)
Preaching to a deaf choir
Everyone’s a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire
Crossfire, crossfire, crossfire
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire
Crossfire, crossfire, crossfire
Crossfire
In the crossfire
