Unturning

I will dig two graves for us Just want to see this enemy gone There is no time I just want to see this enemy gone The war that leaves us all behind I can see it in your eyes The seed inside us multiplies Caught you again, I know your face You played the snake, you promised me King in your world made out of glass We'll wait to see just how long the liar lasts. Call me the cancer wrapped in skin The mask you bear is wearing thin I can see you in the light Questioning mine But these unturning eyes Are leaving us all blind THe anchor between us drags us down And in those depths, we will both surely drown. Reach for my hand, I offer peace, please brother Take it, we will find release "Keep it!" he said, "I wish the ground beneath your feet would give way, There'll be no peace! I am the hand that bears the knife's weight!" I will dig two graves for us Just want to see this enemy gone There is no time Just want to see this enemy gone So bring me the end, bring me that fire Breathe in smoke and spit out ash The snake won't admit it But it's certain now that this too As all things, shall pass I can see you in the light Brother of mine With these unturning eyes We left the whole world blind It begins now You hear that voice from the crowd... Finally, fear in your heart, that old stone This is how it starts We've waited for it We've been begging for it And it won't be long Until we're raising our voices in song We are the voice of the crowd We are fire aloud We are the ones who stood first The hill and the stone The deep and the thirst We are the voice of the crowd We are fire aloud We are the silence at the end of sound Listen closer, perhaps you can hear us now... We believe that the man who brings his heart is home... If the fight isn't over, then let this be known; We'll go down by the sound of the songs that we've sung And I welcome the drowning Fill these empty lungs And I know that there's nothing that waits for me there But the peace in the silence I've earned it I swear In the face of unturning eyes I have no fear There is no god, and I am standing right here Open arms to my brother I say: "Welcome home" Find the peace in each other We've waited so long Neither question nor answer will come from above Bury hate with the coward The answer is love.
