lyrics

So much anger in you still--
And it fires off at will.
Your world is shaking from the sound,
And I can't make you put it down.

I can't fight us both at once
With my lame heroic stunts.
The silver tongue to me endowed
Did not work then, and it won’t work now.

The good fight resumes,
And I will bite down--
'Cause you've made no room.
Knives out.

Once were symbols on my back.
The wicked trembled in their tracks.
Still they trust in evil things
That tear men down with darts and slings.

But be they live or be they dead,
You grind your ax to make your bread.
Such a lonely way to live--
Can't get close, and you can't forgive.

The good fight resumes,
And I will bite down--
'Cause you've made no room,
And I’ve come around ...

To the worst mistakes
That made us afraid,
When the only real mistake
Is to forget they were made.
