Set It Off - Tug Of War Lyrics






Help! Someone convict him of this heinous crime,
We’re running out of time.
Well, it’s like they say some people never learn,
Another bridge you burned.

Every time you walk the line,
Hand to the Bible, don’t you lie,
Not gonna let you come and go this time.
Either you’re in or you are out,
Sick of the drama take a bow,
Sorry to say, your curtain call is now.

No more tug of war,
It’s time for me to let you go.
No more tug of war,
It’s time for me to let you go.

Woo hoo, no more, woo hoo, no more,
It’s time for me to let you go,
Woo hoo, no more, woo hoo, no more,
It’s time for me to let you go,
Yeah!

So, if you’re the puppet she’s the puppeteer,
Strung out by volunteer,
No, this metaphor’s everything but absurd,
You hang on every word.

Every time you walk the line,
Hand to the Bible, don’t you lie,
Not gonna let you come and go this time.
Either you’re in or you are out,
Sick of the drama take a bow,
Sorry to say, your curtain call is now.

No more tug of war,
It’s time for me to let you go.
No more tug of war,
It’s time for me to let you go.

Woo hoo, no more, woo hoo, no more,
It’s time for me to let you go,
Woo hoo, no more, woo hoo, no more,
It’s time for me to let you go,
Yeah!

I’ll be damned if I sing another swan song,
No more shooting for the stars when yours burned out.
Common chemistry can build an atom bomb,
Detonation counting 5-4-3-2-1, I’m done!
(Tell ‘em why!)
It’s time for me to let you go!

Woo hoo, woo hoo
It’s time for me to let you go
(Everybody now)

No more tug of war,
It’s time for me to let you go.
No more tug of war,
It’s time for me to let you go.
Time to let you go.

It’s time for me to let you go.

    WHEN CODY IS TALKING ABOUT BURNING THE BRIDGE ITS AN IDIOM HE WAS BETRAYED OR HAS BROKEN FRIENDSHIPS

  4. T.... l....

    Huh, lots of comments about bridges

  5. J.... S....

    I think that Cody was attracted to bridges and he had an arguement with a bridge and now he wants to burn all bridges 😂 don't ask

  6. a.... w....

    Cody,, which bridge hurt you?

  7. J.... S....

    This song reminds me a little of I'd rather drown, am I right?

    They both mention bridges ;-;

  8. J.... S....

    1 minute in: WtF tHiS iS fUcKiNg AmAZiNg

    This is going to be played at my graduation no doubt .-.

  9. K.... L....

    I love his voice ;u; <33

  10. T.... l....

    The 13 dislikes are from bridges

  11. A.... R....

    Cody just kicked someone out of the band, didn't he?

    A.... R....

    Not exactly kicked out, but it’s a long story…

  12. T.... R....

    I'm starting to think Cody at a really bad breakup on a bridge

  13. L.... _....

    This song helped me find my favorite word ever, heinous. I flipping love that word now!!

  14. s.... m....

    2:42 _swan song reference??_

    also


    cody honey what did bridges do to you

  15. L.... D....

    13 people disliked this because they read it upside down

  16. B.... K....

    *Those poor bridges...*

  17. S.... R....

    What happened with their song "church"???

  18. L.... ....

    It's not that deep guys, burning bridges is literally an idiom people use

  19. R.... T....

    What's with his hate of bridges?

  20. A.... ....

    Okay! I'm going to try to find all the references I can. Some other lyrics sound really familiar to me like "take a bow" and "we're running out of time" but I can't put my finger on it

    "Someone convict him of his heinous crime" not sure if this counts, but it reminds me of Partners in Crime? Maybe another song

    "It's like they say, some people never learn" Reminds me of a song but I can't tell which one. Maybe plastic promises or I'd rather drown or something else

    "Another bridge you burn" definitely I'd Rather Drown

    "Walk the line" and "Come and go" sounds really familiar

    "Sorry to say your curtain call is now" Kill the Lights

    "If you're the puppet she's the puppeteer" N.M.E.!!

    "Another swan song" that one's obvious

    "No more shooting for the stars" that sounds familiar too, but it might not be a set it off reference and a reference to another song I'm thinking of


    And that is all I can think of, if you find any other references, reply with them! :P

    A.... ....

    Violet Wolf I think The first one is also Kill The Lights

    A.... ....

    And I'm sure "come and go" is a reference to 143

    A.... ....

    Oh! You're right! Thanks for the replies <3 (I'm so late in seeing this)

    A.... ....

    Aki It's fine!

    A.... ....

    The references I see just by order of the song.
    1."Help! Someone convict him of this heinous crime" Partners in crime
    2."Another bridge you burned" I'd rather drown
    3."Not gonna let you come and go this time
    Either you’re in or you are out" I feel like this is a reference to ancient history and so could walk the line But it could be 143 im not postive
    4."Sick of the drama take a bow
    Sorry to say your curtain call is now" Kill the lights
    5."So if you’re the puppet she’s the puppeteer
    Strung out by volunteer " N.M.E
    6. "No this metaphor’s everything but absurd
    You hang on every word" Makes me think of i think its arrogance could be wrong tho
    7."I’ll be damned if I sing another swan song" Swan song
    8. "No more shooting for the stars when yours burned out" Reply

  21. S.... ....

    I think Cody bet a lot of money on a bridge game and lost and thats why he hates bridges now.

  22. L.... C....

    There is so many references to songs they did in past it’s kinda funny.

  23. M.... L....

    Whats it with set it off mentioning burning bridges?

    M.... L....

    It means he has been betrayed or somthing

  24. S.... ....

    8 dislikes
    I think they missed the like button

    S.... ....

    Looks like 15 people burned their bridges

  25. F.... A....

    Bridges really bothered Cody that much

  26. O.... K....

    Fun drinking game, whenever Cody mentions bridges take a shot

  27. K.... D....

    So many burnt bridges...

  28. E.... ....

    Cody, may I ask you why do you love burning bridges..?

    I’m really curious did a bridge cheat on you or something..?

    E.... ....

    Quinn Noir Is there a meaning then? And what is it?

    E.... ....

    Unstoppable Squirrel I think we should ask Cody the question "which bridge hurt you?"

    E.... ....

    Quinn Noir I'm 90% sure that it's a metaphor. He talking about burning the connection between him and a toxic person so he can get away from them.

    E.... ....

    Maybe he's just a big Kaiju fan.

    E.... ....

    @Quinn Noir Agree with you

  29. E.... B....

    I wanna know Cody's deep, dark past he has between him and bridges... :/ XP

    E.... B....

    It could be a metaphor, he might be talking about burning bridges between him and people he knew.

    E.... B....

    I bet as a kid, Cody was walking across a bridge that was above a small river and he stepped on a loose plank and fell in. Lmao

    E.... B....

    @Venavasa ya but if I'm correct mi Friend sed he had included Dem in a lot of songs

    E.... B....

    The bridge thing is a joke guys..

  30. M.... T....

    Set it Off has so many underrated songs, and they're all awesome

    M.... T....

    My Toe Cold agreed. Most fans don't even know this song exists

    M.... T....

    Ya mi friend had to tell mi about dis 1 and it's....... AWESOME

  31. C.... D....

    Cody has something with bridges and how these are burned.

    C.... D....

    True LOL XD 😂😂😂

    C.... D....

    Chat Dianne He really must hate bridges

    C.... D....

    Chat Dianne it’s a reference to the song I’d Rather Drown. But yes he does seem to love burning bridges.

    C.... D....

    Chat Dianne
    It's one of those parenting phrases, y'know?
    "Keep your hands to yourself."
    "Don't bite the hand that feeds you."
    "Don't burn your bridges."

    C.... D....

    @Laura Cassley love that song

  32. C.... W....

    Are all his songs about breakups for the same person?? Like I'm noticing a pattern, but i love it all regardless

    C.... W....

    Crimson Writer Between Crutch and this I noticed a pattern too

    C.... W....

    I think heartbreak is just a generally easy subject to sing and write about, but I think certain heartbreaks stuck with him.

  33. M.... O....

    Swang Song... I saw what you did there.

    M.... O....

    I laughed a little when I heard that

  34. B.... D....
