Strike Anywhere In The Fingernails Lyrics

There's a new war
Starting in the world today
To halve the have-nots while we look away
The game of empire's p___s we fall through the chessboard

I will not fall for the black and white
Armed with no options we're ghosts in the fight
I won't pull the trigger on the world
For you underground

In every city eye to eye
Defined by our choices not where we divide
In every city ear to ear
I hear the echoes of another way every living day
And I know that I am not alone

Inside I know the fault lies with us
Too guarded to contact, too frightened to trust
Someone's heroes are someone's terrorists
I watch the elites fall over themselves to squeeze blood from a stone
I won't sell out my reasoning
And I know that I am not alone

In every city eye to eye
Defined by our choices not where we divide
In every city ear to ear
I hear the echoes of another way every living day
And I know that I am not alone

I hear the echoes
Well, I will not fall for the black or the white
Armed with no options, we're ghosts in the fight
I won't pull the trigger on the world for you.
