Keep Watch For The Mines

(album: The Shade Of Poison Trees - 2007)

Don't act like you've been silent
I know how you spread that
Web of contradictions
Wide like so much cover fire

Keep watch for the mines
Keep watch for the mines

Be careful who you
Wave that tongue at around here
I've seen smarter acts than yours
Get disappeared

If you keep swinging that knife
All over this town
You are bound to get you own back stabbed

Keep watch for the mines
The concealed dangers
The traps and the coils of the wires
With the sharp razors
The ditches and the trenches and the smiles
Of the grave diggers
And if you're told
The answer needs no questioning
The answer is a lie

Keep watch for the mines
Keep watch for the mines
Will they bleed everyone out?
Will they bleed everyone out?
Keep watch for the mines
Will they bleed everyone out
Before they die?

Keep watch for the mines
Will they bleed everyone out?
Will they bleed everyone out?
Keep watch for the mines
Will they bleed everyone out
Before they die?

Keep watch for the mines
The concealed dangers
The traps and the coils of the wires
With the sharp razors
The ditches and the trenches and the smiles
Of the grave diggers
And if you're told
The answer needs no questioning
The answer is a lie

Keep watch for the mines
Keep watch for the mines
