Crossfire
from Taxidermy (Brought Back To Life) by Mr. & Mrs. Smith
lyrics
Crossfire
They call it cross fire and oh I got caught
with tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat
I thought surely somethin would have been said
but nope
just me hanging off the other end of this rope
one day will i ever forgive
the things you didn’t say and those I feared
oh one day
will your eyes be too close
so I’ll feel what it’s like to knowwwwww
and I hear you breathing heavy
wouldn’t it be nice to let go
oh wouldn’t it be nice to let your soul know
that it’s the arrow and you are the
chorus
and oh I’d be lying
if I told you I was fine
but the way things ended
really screwed with my mind
they say silence is golden
but with us it killed
an entire state and left giant shoes to fill
if memory serves me right
and I know it will
amuse me is what it says
and that you do well
chorus
They call it cross fire and oh I got caught
with tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat
I thought surely somethin would have been said
but nope
just me hanging off the other end of this rope
one day will i ever forgive
the things you didn’t say and those I feared
oh one day
will your eyes be too close
so I’ll feel what it’s like to knowwwwww
and I hear you breathing heavy
wouldn’t it be nice to let go
oh wouldn’t it be nice to let your soul know
that it’s the arrow and you are the
chorus
and oh I’d be lying
if I told you I was fine
but the way things ended
really screwed with my mind
they say silence is golden
but with us it killed
an entire state and left giant shoes to fill
if memory serves me right
and I know it will
amuse me is what it says
and that you do well
chorus
