Vigilance

I’m living a lie

The truth stripped from my words

Forever falling through grace

You disgrace me

You won’t replace me

You were kneeling before me

The very king of performing

And the only choice that you made

Was to live with death or conforming

To understand just what we’ve been through

Upon request you must relinquish

All that has held you together

We are the eye of the storm

Where the flames are the rain

And volcanoes the water source

And as the fire consumes you

You’re forgiving your fate as you beg for remorse

I’ll be there, when your limelight breaks

And your body is bounded by chains

So fight your fights little boy

Because when you grow up you’ll find

That you’ve lived your life blind

Let me be the voice, that blocks out the noise

And the shout that refrains from their cowardly mouths

Let me be the hearts of the unloved, and the minds of the lost

These pure hearts and minds are the only thing

That we have that they haven’t got

Crown your mind, with more than a throne

Stay just alive ‘till you hear of home

Crown your mind to keep them alive

Tell me, would you leave this world behind?

Just to find your place in the sky

Would you leave this world behind?

The black of the night it took you inside and became all the lies

But no, not even the dark will find you in time

Where are my enemies now, their bodies are stacked

When you fuck with us, we fuck right back

Where are they now?

Where are my enemies now?
