After The Fight Lyrics - Jars Of Clay

You can blame it on my pride or the spell that I'm under 

I get to fight with the lightning, talk back to the thunder 

I want more wind in this tornado cause it isn't moving fast enough yet 

Gonna burn this temple to the ground once I have the fuses set 

But after the fight is over will I talk so tough 

Will I run for cover after the gloves come off 

Yeah when the black eye lingers will I stand my ground 

Return my fists to fingers after the final round 

I have a hand full of feathers and blood stains on my skin 

Is there an angel left to wrestle, white horses they haven't broken in 

I get up from the canvas swinging like I think I might just win 

And we go around and round and round and round again 

After the fight is over will I talk so tough 

Will I run for cover after the gloves come off 

Yeah when the black eye lingers will I stand my ground 

Return my fists to fingers after the final round 

Will walking be a reminder of punches I let by 

Will walking be a reminder of punches I let by 

I let by 

Another thorn in my side 

I let by 

After the fight is over will I talk so tough 

Will I run for cover 

After the fight is over will I talk so tough 

Will I run for cover after the gloves come off 

Yeah when the black eye lingers will I stand my ground 

Return my fists to fingers after the final round 

Will I get by 

I let by
