What is this mess
In the battlefield of hope I hear my footsteps
We fight in the dark
Showing teeth and hiding the heart
Doing what we're made to do
And you know this best
Remains of your dreams have been scattered by the tempest
They simmer in the dark
We pick the tiniest sparks up
And find some fool to place the blame on
But I'm
Catching on
To the war in your eyes
The evil we do
Just like the thunder
Beneath the aching sky
We're just wasting time as we hesitate
Is this our best?
Remains to be seen if I'm Anthony or Cassius
Will the voice of reason get drowned in the noise
And sin, poison, fake happiness?
But I'm
I'm catching on
To the war in your eyes
The evil we do
Some things are in the control
Of the gods of war
Is there a reason at all
To keep aiming for
More than surrender?
We don't remember how it got so hard to speak
But I'm
I'm catching on
To the war in your eyes
The evil we do
And I'm
I'm catching on
To the war in your eyes
The drama we do
