  			Dm                                A7 
Between a broken nose and a fake smile 
A7                     Dm 
Between piety and gunpowder 
Dm                                A7 
Between fighting and fleeing the scene 
A7                       Dm 
Between murder and diplomacy 
Dm                         A7 
Between aggression and oblivion 
A7                                 Dm 
Between brutal and realistically well behaved 
Dm                                    A7 
Between screaming and pulling in the reins 
A7                                         
Between tiptoeing and ambling 
 
Dm            A7               Dm 
What am I to do with all this fire 
(I'd like to hit you but I'd never hit you) 
Dm                A7              Dm     
Would you stay with me in this red space 
(I'd like to slap you but I'd never slap you) 
 
Chorus: 
F     
Between violence and silently seething 
            A#                      F 
Between my fist and my pollyanna flower 
F 
Between 'fuck you' to your face and it's alright 
         A#  
Between war and denial 
 
(same chords as in the 1st verse) 
Between flying vases and secretly weeping 
Between loose cannons and ever downplaying 
Between bruises and rudely differing 
Between bursting and boiling 
 
What am I to do with all this burning 
(I'd like to hurt you but I'd never hurt you) 
Do I overwhelm you in this place 
(I'd like to kill you but I'd never kill you) 
 
Chorus 
 
Dm            A7              Dm 
What am I to do with all this fire 
Dm              A7              Dm 
Can you understand me in this place?
