Jars Of Clay - After the Fight Lyrics
You can blame it on my pride or the spell I'm underI get to fight with the lightning, talk back to the thunderI want more ... cause it isn't moving fast enough yetI'm going to burn this temple to the ground once I have the fuses setAfter the fight is over, will I talk so toughWill I run for cover, after the gloves come offWhile the black eye lingers, will I stand my groundReturn my fists to fingers after the final roundI have a hand full of feathers and blood stains on my skinIs there an angel left to wrestle white horses they haven't broken inI get up from the canvas swinging like I think I might just winWe go around, around, around, around againAfter the fight is over, will I talk so toughWill I run for cover, after the gloves come offWhen the black eye lingers, will I stand my groundReturn my fists to fingers after the final roundWill walking be a reminder of punches I let byWill walking be a reminder of punches I let byI let byAnother thorn in my sideI let byAfter the fight is over, will I talk so toughWill I run for coverAfter the fight is over, will I talk so toughWill I run for cover, after the gloves come offWhen the black eye lingers, will I stand my groundReturn my fists to fingers after the final round
