Friendly Fire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The high sun is beating down
The whole town is gathered 'round
You and me, back to back
Shakey hands and bury facts
So we count ten to one
Think about what the other one's done
To deserve a bullet from a gun
That wasn't meant for the other
Everyone's under friendly fire
Hearts are bleeding with the same desire
Raise your flag and wave it in the air
A tiny spark becomes a torch
Every thought a cold war
In our blood and in our veins
Who we are is what remains
So we choose to do what's right
By the sun and the moon late at night
Call a truce in the middle of the fight
Listen to the voice of the other sided
Everyone's under friendly fire
Hearts are bleeding with the same desire
Raise your flag and wave it in the air
I know we know when one side wins
When the house goes republican
When we count up all our sins
Do they add up to the truth?
When the roof starts shaking now
And the frames come crashing down
And the glass laying on the ground
Comes up (?) to the (?)
Everyone's under friendly fire
Hearts are bleeding with the same desire
Raise your flag and wave it in the air
Everyone's under friendly fire
The message was lost it came across the wire
Raise your flag and wave it in the air
Everyone's under friendly fire
Hearts are bleeding with the same desire
Raise your flag and wave it in the air
