The Fight

Lyrics to The Fight :

Would you go to war for me, baby
Would you cry for the weak
And die for the peace of men
Oh how can we know
You and I both know
So let's make this boatload of excuses burn and sing


One day it all comes down to this
You can sink or swim
You can handle this
One day it all comes down
One day we all go down


I'll take my heart back
And set the people free
I'll leave the dead to die
And take what's coming with me


Step back for all the world to see
Your life means all the world to me
I'll take your pain and suffering
I'm such a sucker sometimes
Sometimes we don't know
So plug up those bullet holes
Oh you feel so close, don't let go until I say


One day we'll drink to this and say
Remember when we died
We went out in flames


I'll take my heart back
And set the people free
And take what's coming with me


Step back for all the world to see
Your life means all the world to me
I'll take your pain and suffering
I'm such a sucker sometimes
Sometimes we don't know
So plug up those bullet holes
Oh you feel so close, don't let go until I say


One day we'll drink to this and say
Remember when we died
We went out in flames


I'll take my heart back
And set the people free
There will be blood in the streets

I first heard this song when I was a senior in high school and fell in love. It's been stuck in my head all day. The imagery behind the lyric:

I'll take my heart back and set the people free, there will be blood in the streets

Its an intense mental image. Turn on a strobe light and do a little head thrashing to this song. It's a good one. Also, look up the Classic Crime. They're prime.
