A song about the one time in life where you have no choice but to fight back against your aggressor.
lyrics
How it seems to all be over nothing
And how it seems to build and fill your brain
How it seems so hard to walk away
when they're face to face
and eye to eye with you
Now it feels like fire's the only option
your hands are tied
a choice is overdue
a thousand times the voice would say 'do nothing'
but you'll be damned if you'll let them walk over you
