This War

(album: Exit Wounds - 2014)

Power will piss on the weak!

A serpent order, a twisted horde of creeping scum
Seizing power, they sacrifice to rise beyond

You feel the tension rising, you're about to break
They watch you fight for high ground and now they raise the stakes
You live in the silent chaos, yet you fear the sound it makes
You close your eyes and fake it, but it won't go away

This war is final!
Discard!
The serpent is shedding it's skin

They run this putrid game, they deal the cards
Deep inside the calm, you know there's no way to win
You close your eyes and fake it, but it won't go away
But they are here to stay!

This war is final!
Discard!
The serpent is shedding it's skin

You feel the tension rising, you're about to break
They watch you fight for high ground, then they raise the stakes

This war is final!
Discard!
The serpent is shedding it's skin

This war is final!
Discard!
The serpent is shedding it's skin

The serpent is shedding it's skin
