Cover art for Firefight lyrics by Jimmy Eat World

I see this song being through the eyes of a guy who is secretly dating a girl and their secret has come out.

"I won't run" He won't leave her, he's goin to fight for their relationship.

"For you and me, there's nowhere left to hide Except you and me, there's no one else alive" There's not safe place for them anymore, their secret is out. No one else's opinion matters to him but her's.

"Why open the door when you won't go? Don't ask twice if you don't want to know." She's feeling guilty for being with him and is willing to give up on the relationship. She asks him if he wants to stay with her.

"Is there an answer? And if it's an honest one, honestly worth its question There's no question" He says he loves her so much that it's not even a question.

"The city as my witness, I am who I want to be, Because you could be anything, Just be anything and with me" It doesn't matter what society thinks, he's going to stay true to who he is. With or without her.
