Fight Song
Appleseed Cast Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And there on the stairs,
standing there,
arm outstretched,
point and glare,
watching the love,
fall to our feet,
into the floor to disappear.
We're finding fault,
you kissed her
or you slept with him,
or you didn't care?

Now it all breaks,
disintegrates.
Well this is the last thing I'll take
because I can't face you now.

This is the end, there's nothing to keep.
This is the end of you and me.
As the ice comes down it's the end,
as the lies come out it's the end,
as the tears flow out it's the end.
it's the end of you and me,

So we'll look out on the lake
and we see the white light.
I said it was gold.
It should have been gold.
Then maybe all the crazy things you said
would have some meaning,
but this thing we have made it can't stop,




it won't stop? and I can't face you now.
Take your troubles solo, this is the end of you and me.

or you didnt care

'cause i can't face you now...

This is one of my favourite songs. For awhile I need to come back here to be reminded of its greatness.

@islamicsalami7208

"This is the end of you and me" Wow. That hits so hard. Really a painful lyric that most of us can relate to from past relationships. Damn.

@tornadotom2390

I've seen this band 6 times live. It never cost me more than $20 for a ticket most of the time around $10 a ticket. I believe I am partially deaf in my left ear from standing as close as I could to the speakers each time I saw them.

@spencerolsen985

I've seen them three times at a club that used to be in Phoenix called Modified. Such a unique, amazing sound.

@Natanbarrosfreitas

First time I listened to this song I was like 18 years old. Here I am eight years later. Some good memories. Things have changed and time has passed, but I still feel the feeling I used to feel back then.

@TracyMasters

This song and Crime Scene Part One by the Afghan Wigs are the most listened to for sure.

@cassielee325

This is bringing back so many high school memories

@dariohc6898

Just broke up, and the first thing i'm doing... Came to listen this song.. Hope the next relationship will be better :/

@oddronuctv

Has aged very well.

@jonpena435

I agree 2 years later :) .
