lyrics

Verse:
Story shows how wars are won behind the scope of a loaded gun
As the morals fade away
Disillusion from the cult we try to change the end result
Societal decay
When the time for vengeance came did not stand up to defend our name
You looked the other way
A friend in need is a friend indeed unless you’re overcome with greed
There’s nothing left to say

Chorus:
You raise
Your arms and fight when I say
You’re not a soldier just a pawn in my crusade
I take away
Your right to challenge my blade
You’re not a soldier just a pawn in my crusade

Verse:
The second act has been rehearsed but the enemy has not dispersed
Gather arms and choose your sides
Walk a fortnight in my shoes you’ll quickly see revenge is crude
She won’t be home tonight
Sheep flock to the battlefield, identities are now revealed
In false defense of pride
When the smoke clears from your head you’ll pray that blood has not been shed
During the great divide

Verse:
I’d like to know why the time goes by so slow
A room full of friends but I’m all alone
Who stole the souls of everyone I’ve known (everyone I’ve known)
When the darkness came it unleashed widespread dismay
We lost the night and burned up the day
Now all I see is shades of black and gray

Bridge:
Well the knife in my back beats the weight on your shoulders
So let’s compare what I lack in a friendship turned black we’ve grown colder
There’s no need to explain I’ve got hours to complain and there’s nowhere left to go
But before I begin to drag the knife beneath your chin I’d like to know (I’d like to know)
