Lemon to a Knife Fight Lyrics

Hero to zero
I pick up the bill
The brake lights cast a red light
And the road twists round the hill
Lipstick on the backseat
Saliva on the dash
I've clawed my way out of here before
But I keep on coming back

I push and you tend to shove
I give in and you don't give up
I'm not getting out of here this time
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I kick and you like to punch
I'm unhinged and you're undone
I'm not getting out of here alive
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh

Hero to zero at 60mph
My eyes are getting wider with every word you say
Intoxicated, higher than the ISS
I've clawed my way out of here before
But tonight I'm turning left

I push and you tend to shove
I give in and you don't give up
I'm not getting out of here this time
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I kick and you like to punch
I'm unhinged and you're undone
I'm not getting out of here alive
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I brought a lemon to a knife fight

I push and you tend to shove
I give in and you don't give up
I'm not getting out of here this time
I brought a lemon to a knife fight
I kick and you like to punch
I'm unhinged and you're undone
I'm not getting out of here alive
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh
I brought a lemon to a knife fight, ooh
I brought a lemon to a knife fight

What is the Meaning of Lemon to a Knife Fight?

Diving deep into the realm of emotional battles, this track paints a vivid picture of an uneven relationship. The protagonist finds himself in a constant struggle, always outmatched and ill-prepared - hence the metaphor of bringing a "lemon to a knife fight". This signifies his futile attempts at resolving issues with peace in a volatile situation. The repeated return to the fight implies an addiction to the chaos or perhaps, an unwillingness to let go. The high-speed journey and references to intoxication further amplify the sense of reckless abandon and turmoil within him. Overall, it's a raw exploration of toxic love and self-destruction that many can resonate with. #ToxicLove #EmotionalBattles
