Friendly Fire

(álbum: Etc. - 2002)

Walked beyond the fence
Played outside our yard
You took it hard
Through a one-way door
Hinged high on doubt
No ins, no outs

I like my clothes
Don't want to grow
I'll wait around
'Til you say go

The lights were off
When I got home
Black room, blue phone
Hey, I know your name
Weren't we almost friends?
Guess that depends

Take some benefit
With all your doubt
If this is principle
I'm dropping out

You demonize
You don't look so bad
You wouldn't take
What you couldn't have
My back is warm
With your friendly fire
I know you're trying
Could you please aim it higher?
Could you please aim it higher?

So alone, I wrote
I wrote this will
I will decline
This fish ain't big
This pond is small
So small of mind

I like my clothes
Don't want to grow
I'll wait around
'Til you say go

You demonize
You don't look so bad
You wouldn't take
What you couldn't have
My back is warm
With your friendly fire
I know you're trying
Could you please aim it higher?
Could you please aim it higher?
