Friendly Fire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Not so long ago
Down from the trees and into the gutter
Naked, beautiful
Feet on the earth and heart all aflutter
Set up from the dawn
Eden was a trap and the apple was a con
From the tilt of the hips, the grasp of the hand
The word is the seed of the soul of the man
Friendly fire
Can't take one life for another
Friendly fire
Know your history
We don't want to learn
But we want to believe
We seek out enemies
Scared to the core
As we arm to the teeth
Friendly fire
Can't tear one life for another
Friendly fire
We're not separate, no different
We're not separate, no different
We're still animals
Get up off your knees
Don't bow your head any more
Raise your voice to sing
One song true enough for us all
Friendly fire
Can't trade one life for another
Friendly fire
We're not separate, no different
We came from the earth, not the firmament
We're not separate, no different now
We're not separate, no different
We're bound to the earth like a sacrament
We're not separate, no different now
We're still beautiful animals
