Crossfire
Havoc Faction Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Anything by now
We're getting what we deserve
When we let
This world come
Crashing down
Now I've lost
Just giving up
But I know
The cost of fighting for something
Greater than any of us
Break down your walls
And let air into your lungs
Where will you be
When we reach our reckoning
When will you see
When will you see that we're all
Caught in your crossfire
This false existence
In the name of progress
Has been fabricated from fear and panic
We'll reverse this damage
And mess you left for us
When will you see
When will you see that we're all
Caught in your crossfire
Where will you be
When we reach our reckoning
When will you see
When will you see that we're all
Caught in your crossfire
If I've learned
Anything by now
We're getting what we deserve
The lyrics to Havoc Faction's song "Crossfire" convey a strong message of reflection, accountability, and the consequences of our actions. The opening lines express a realization that we are reaping what we sow, implying that the world is in chaos because of our own choices. It hints at a sense of regret and acceptance that we are responsible for the current state of affairs.
The next stanza touches upon personal loss and the temptation to give up, but it also recognizes the importance of fighting for something greater than ourselves. This suggests that despite the hardships and sacrifices, there is value in standing up for what is right and working towards a better future.
The chorus brings attention to the division and conflict within society, using the metaphorical imagery of being caught in a crossfire. It questions where individuals will be when the consequences of their actions reach a boiling point, urging them to see the collective suffering caused by their choices.
The verse following the chorus further emphasizes the criticism of a false existence driven by fear and panic, claiming that progress has been built on an illusion. It speaks to the need for reversal, to repair the damage caused by those who came before us. The song ends with a final plea for awareness and acknowledgement of the collective responsibility for the world we live in.
Overall, "Crossfire" encourages introspection, accountability, and the importance of taking action to rectify the damage caused by our choices.

Anything by now
Through past experiences and observations
We're getting what we deserve
We are receiving the consequences that we have earned
When we let
When we allow
This world come
The state of society
Crashing down
To collapse or fail
Now I've lost
Now I have experienced loss
More than enough to warrant
A significant amount to justify
Just giving up
Simply surrendering
But I know
However, I understand
The cost of fighting for something
The price of defending a cause
Greater than any of us
That surpasses individual importance
Break down your walls
Remove your barriers
And let air into your lungs
Allow yourself to breathe freely
Where will you be
Where will you find yourself
When we reach our reckoning
When we face the consequences of our actions
When will you see
When will you realize
When will you see that we're all
When will you understand that all of us are
Caught in your crossfire
Trapped in the conflict you have created
This false existence
This inauthentic way of living
In the name of progress
In the pursuit of advancement
Has been fabricated from fear and panic
Has been constructed out of fear and chaos
We'll reverse this damage
We will undo the harm
And mess you left for us
And the chaos you have caused for us
When will you see
When will you realize
When will you see that we're all
When will you understand that all of us are
Caught in your crossfire
Trapped in the conflict you have created
Where will you be
Where will you find yourself
When we reach our reckoning
When we face the consequences of our actions
When will you see
When will you realize
When will you see that we're all
When will you understand that all of us are
Caught in your crossfire
Trapped in the conflict you have created
If I've learned
After gaining experience and knowledge
Anything by now
Through past experiences and observations
We're getting what we deserve
We are receiving the consequences that we have earned
