Open Fire Lyrics

Everybody wants to get a taste
Of something that makes it worth getting up for
Everybody wants to try a piece
Of a little good thing, a little good thing
I don't know if I could be the one to do it for you
I'd try harder if you could just let me get close to you

I've decided that I've had my fill
Of things that are solid but they don't satisfy
There's got to be more to it still
Than this sound called life you and I seem to be trapped inside
I can't sit down without crashing into
The walls you put up to try to keep me from touching you

Where did you learn that this was any variation of normal?
Who taught you how to love someone by breaking their heart?
And I won't stand for you to open fire
You shoot me down when I walk through the door
And it's not worth the noise, and it's not worth the blood
And I won't do it anymore
And it's not worth the noise, and it's not worth the blood
And I won't do it anymore

Everything got smaller with time
'Cause you divided the world into your side and mine
And you kept waking up so you tried to hide it
By bombing everything on my side of the line
I can't speak 'cause I'm so damn angry
I don't ask much, just act like you love me

Where did you learn that this was any variation of normal?
Who taught you how to love someone by breaking their heart?
And I won't stand for you to open fire
You shoot me down when I walk through the door
And it's not worth the noise, and it's not worth the blood
And I won't do it anymore
And it's not worth the blood,
It's just a shadow of love
And I won't do it anymore

Yeah, you know just what you're doing
You don't care, you just keep doing it
You say that all is fair
You love the war, as long as you get to win

And you have never felt like you had a hope
You're terrified by the way you feel
It makes you feel out of control
And you would rather hate the ones you love
Than to take a chance they might not love you back
And they might break your heart
And I am not so insecure that I'd be Miserable just to win your love
I don't need you, no I don't need you that much
I don't need you that much, no
I don't need you that much
