OTHERWISE - 'Crossfire' Official Music Video (Defy)

"One of the hardest things we've ever had to do, as performing artists, was cancel our Defy Division Tour. It's left us wondering how we'll be able to feed our families, if we'll still even have a career after this; we know that millions of others across the globe are facing the same dire prospect. Yet it's not just jobs & money that we are losing... people are fighting for their lives, right now. The whole world has been caught in the Crossfire. We never thought we'd live to see the heartbreaking day when the bright lights & dancing fountains are turned off in the Neon Desert. But we are all in this together so let's keep our heads down low & hopes up high, for humanity. This pandemic doesn't discriminate... and neither does rock n roll. Stay safe, stay home, stay strong." - Adrian Patrick

"CROSSFIRE" LYRICS
No, you're not gonna waste my time
No, you're not gonna change my mind
No, I'm not your bottom line
This runs deeper than dollar signs
Every deal the with the devil's the same
They all want credit but nobody takes blame
Dark money games
Sellin' me the same ol' lie with a different name

Same shit, different day
This tired old song is so overplayed
From New York City back to L.A.
Welcome to the masquerade, eh

I'm caught in the...

I'm caught in the crossfire
Dancin' on a tripwire
Throwin' up a toast to the end of the world
Preachin' to a deaf choir
Everyone's a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire

Now you want me to change my name
Now you want me to change my face
Now you want me to learn my place
But I'd rather learn from my mistakes

Gotta fight just to tell the truth
Gotta steal just to make it new
I never knew, it takes a hit
To find out you're bulletproof

I'm caught in the...

I'm caught in the crossfire
Dancin' on a tripwire
Throwin' up a toast to the end of the world
Preachin' to a deaf choir
Everyone's a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire

Past the point, no return
I'm caught in the crossfire
Watching all bridges burn
I'm caught in the crossfire

So what do ya do?!
Come on and tell me!
So what do ya do?!
Come on and tell me!

I'm caught in the...

I'm caught in the crossfire
Dancin' on a tripwire
Throwin' up a toast to the end of the world
Preachin' to a deaf choir
Everyone's a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire

(Crossfire, crossfire
Crossfire, crossfire)
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire
(Crossfire, crossfire
Crossfire, crossfire)
Crossfire
In the crossfire

RVERYTHING THIS BAND DOES IS SO GOOD. And I freaking love that they aren't afraid to make a statement and say something

[spikerobot]

The whole chorus sums up the entire 2020s.

[sarcasticsoftware]

"It takes a hit to find out that you're bulletproof" ... that has been playing over and over in my head since I first heard this... its not everyday that that happens with a non-chorus lyric - beautiful song.

Fire, fire, Crossfire

No you’re not going to waste my time
No you’re not going to change my mind
No I’m not your bottom line
This runs deeper than dollar signs
Every deal with the devil’s the same
They all want credit but nobody takes blame
Dark money games
Selling me the same old lie with a different name
Same shit, different day
This tired old song is so overplayed
From New York City back to LA
Welcome to the masquerade

I’m caught in the
I’m caught in the crossfire
Dancing on a trip wire
Throwing up a toast to the end of the world
Preaching to a deaf choir
Everyone’s a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire

Now you want me to change my name
Now you want me to change my face
Now you want me to learn my place
But I’d rather learn from my mistakes
Got a fight just to tell the truth
Got a steal just to make it new
I never knew, it takes a hit
To find out your bulletproof

I’m caught in the
I’m caught in the crossfire
Dancing on a trip wire
Throwing up a toast to the end of the world
Preaching to a deaf choir
Everyone’s a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire ...

Past the point, no return
I’m caught in the crossfire
Watching all bridges burn
I’m caught in the crossfire
So what do you do?
Come on and tell me
So what do you do?
Come on and tell me

I’m caught in the
I’m caught in the crossfire
Dancing on a trip wire
Throwing up a toast to the end of the world
Preaching to a deaf choir
Everyone’s a damn liar
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire
(Crossfire, crossfire, crossfire)
Better keep your hopes high and head down low
In the crossfire
(Crossfire, crossfire, crossfire)
Crossfire
In the crossfire

[kristenjohnson]

As a Vegas local and Otherwise fan, this is one of my favorite videos. Thank you Otherwise for this video. When this is all over, I will be at your next Vegas show.

[tammiwaversak]

Just learned Crossfire will be opening for Godsmack here in LV/Henderson on 9.30.22. To get myself pumped up and ready to rock, listening to as much Crossfire as I can find. You guys ROCK!! And like others have commented here, the video is so damn good, timely and brought back some memories. I had just moved here from Massachusetts on March 24, 2020 and remember driving around in my new city and seeing exactly what you show in this video. Can't wait to see you live, new fan for life!!!

This song is so amazing and real! If you don't know anything about this band, then you need to find out what they're about! This video should've a million views by now! I was supposed to see them in Lansing Michigan on April 5th at a small personal venue called the loft. I've never seen them live, but I've been listening to their music for a long time! They write great lyrics, and have great energy! Love you guys! I hope you make it through all this craziness so I can see you live! Thanks for all the great music! It gets me through every day even when things seem so hopeless.
