GRINDING TEETH

This is a war of subtle defences
Grinding teeth and hidden agendas
All this time I’ve longed for defection… to your side
But who would you trade me for?

This is a war of subtle defences…

You’re cut in black, and I’m stealing advances
Flash of your flesh heightens my senses

This is a war of subtle defences…
I say,… “I will protect you always”
And we both know that’s not true
But these are the lies that keep things smooth
Keep things smooth

I’m not sure any more where I stand
Born a refugee in my own land

This is a war of subtle defences…
And I will protect you always
And we both know that’s not true
But these are the lies that keep things smooth…
