The Battle for Everyone's Hearts is Fought on Unfair Grounds
The war rages on!
And your eyes – they're empty.
Glossed over with a translucent film,
We see everything that you do.
Black and white.
With the fire burning beside you,
Flickering and churning,
Casting dark shadows on your face.
Alive. You look alive.
Ostracize the zombies and throw away the dead.
The battle for everyone's soul is fought on unfair grounds.
Cock the guns and fire,
Wield the wands and charge.
You're held captive, a hostage to everyone's hearts.
You're a prisoner who just lost their soul.
Reach into your gut, your spine, your lungs,
And it's shimmering. It's there.
Hiding, hiding, hiding.
Nuclear bombs go off next to you.
Flinch for God's sake!
Flinch, you big mistake!
And the fires, they burn right next to your cowhide skin.
The shadows are dancing on your sallow, sorry face.
The glass-eyes gaze with a sickening grace;
You're naïve! You're gone! You're dead!
Alive. You look alive.
The battle for everyone's soul is fought on unfair grounds.
Cock the guns and fire,
Wield the wands and charge.
You're held captive, a hostage to everyone's hearts.
You're a prisoner who just lost their soul.
There is no sympathy in war, you bitch.
There are no apologies, there are no mistakes.
Burn the traitor at the stake.
Stone them until their bones quake.
There is no sympathy on the battlefield.
Fight for everyone's souls.
