ENEMY

Tension

Tensions awaken

Leave your ways and count your days

The earth has been shaken

Dissension

Positions are taken

Grind your axe and raise your flags

We are forsaken

I watch the figures in the clouds

To love you is to see me dying

But how can I trust someone I do not understand

And how can I reach for the tips of a burning hand

Suspicion between us

Is what will defeat us

The beast in the flesh is the fear of the underhand

Attention

We are the same kin

They will lie and they will grin

Corruption must not win

Sanctions

These are the rulings

Drop your pikes and drop to your knees

Face what's ensuing

They will lie

They will grin

They will lie

They will grin

They will sin

How can I trust someone I do not understand

And how can I reach for the tips of a burning hand

Suspicion between us

Is what will defeat us

The beast in the flesh is the fear of the underhand

I've never felt so alone in my skin

I didn't know I had this monster hiding

Here we stand beneath the ether

Bound to our sole desire

Sink our teeth into each other

And drop our souls into the fire

How can I trust someone I do not understand

And how can I reach for the tips of a burning hand

Suspicion between us

Is what will defeat us

The beast in the flesh is the fear of the underhand

Our ashes remember the arguments

The monster will scour the earth for innocence
