I, I didn't believe it when
My enemy it quit before bloodshed
I fight to the bitter end
And I didn't see it when you gave in

But I've been up nights talking to my god
Can't see the plan he's got
Or what the hell he wants
And I'm so tired my gloves have come off
All my bets are off
All my hopes are lost

Back and forth, why oh why
We're always fighting fire with fire
Battle scarred, torn apart
We're always fighting fire with fire

You, you were the stronger one
I didn't belong with someone so true
Bruised, the battle rages on
And I'm afraid of what we might do

But I've been up nights making you my god
I finally see you're not,
Not the one to blame.
And we're so tired our gloves have come off
So let's sit back and watch us both up in flames

Back and forth, why oh why
We're always fighting fire with fire
Battle scarred, torn apart
We're always fighting fire with fire

Never put it out
Too proud to back down
We're going down in flames
We're both of us to blame

Fire with fire
Higher and higher
Fire with fire
Higher and higher and higher and higher

Back and forth, why oh why
We're always fighting fire with fire
Battle scarred, torn apart
We're always fighting fire with fire
