Hydra
Feed us doubt
Trouble comes in pairs
I could've heed this warning
But I was busy removing the head of a hydra
-Dead to rights was it
Was there anything you could've said
To provoke a good response?
'Cause now I'm in dismay
And I know we're all in danger
And I know we're all afraid
But the Promised Lands' worth it in the end
I hack further into my feelings
I slice closer to the source
Problems sprout like little seedlings
-Take one out, then birth two more
I couldn't make this up
I was after anything thing to show I'm brave
I am stuck in a jungle of avarice
-Kept me hungry
-Kept me a slave
I only did more action 'cause my words never found their home
I tried to tell myself there was hope and no more misery
Ah—that was the end of me...
Ever since that day I've self-destructed
I'm the enemy
I've made my peace with that
And it's okay
We don't survive and get to walk away without a scratch
No, trouble comes in pairs!
And it comes in starving
Comes in violent
Comes in snarling
Comes in angry and greedy
No one can make it stop
I fear we've neared the end of the rope
I couldn't make this up!
I was after anything to give me strength
And I interpret that as virtue
I interpret that as justice and good deeds
But you know that I know it's over
Don't you know I know!
That's why you jab at me with prejudice
And I keep being more and more discreet
Convinced that I can change the outcome
I flounder as I'm cutting
And cutting and cutting and cutting the heads
-Wild and rampant!
We can't stop it!
No, trouble's always coming
And coming and coming and coming in pairs
But it took that doubt to make me cower
Trouble comes in pairs
I could've heed this warning
But I was busy removing the head of a hydra
-Dead to rights was it
Was there anything you could've said
To provoke a good response?
'Cause now I'm in dismay
And I know we're all in danger
And I know we're all afraid
But the Promised Lands' worth it in the end
I hack further into my feelings
I slice closer to the source
Problems sprout like little seedlings
-Take one out, then birth two more
I couldn't make this up
I was after anything thing to show I'm brave
I am stuck in a jungle of avarice
-Kept me hungry
-Kept me a slave
I only did more action 'cause my words never found their home
I tried to tell myself there was hope and no more misery
Ah—that was the end of me...
Ever since that day I've self-destructed
I'm the enemy
I've made my peace with that
And it's okay
We don't survive and get to walk away without a scratch
No, trouble comes in pairs!
And it comes in starving
Comes in violent
Comes in snarling
Comes in angry and greedy
No one can make it stop
I fear we've neared the end of the rope
I couldn't make this up!
I was after anything to give me strength
And I interpret that as virtue
I interpret that as justice and good deeds
But you know that I know it's over
Don't you know I know!
That's why you jab at me with prejudice
And I keep being more and more discreet
Convinced that I can change the outcome
I flounder as I'm cutting
And cutting and cutting and cutting the heads
-Wild and rampant!
We can't stop it!
No, trouble's always coming
And coming and coming and coming in pairs
But it took that doubt to make me cower
