Defiance
Your eyes fight in the shade
In the fading light of the fireplace
Drying like the stain on the page
Are the signs of the stalemate
The final caveat in the cards
That were played down to the crowds
The future locked away in the wake of a trouble that will never fade
And now
It's here we find you
Where you stand defiant
The proposition was made by the prophets
Your disposition has been stunted and dormant
Look around you you'll see we're upon you
A world to deprive you of all you aspire to
And now
It's here we find you
Where you stand defiant
Do what is right
We told you to
Don't wait 'til it's over
The soaring heights of a chosen few
Will pass like the summer
There's iron in the water
The blood of an unknown soldier
I can't see where I'll find you
I can't find how I'm measured
And now
It's here we find you
Where you stand defiant
How your heart's excited
How your mind's divided
The ground beneath is shaking
The titan's spirit breaking
The fight is overwhelming
The lion suffocating
In the fading light of the fireplace
Drying like the stain on the page
Are the signs of the stalemate
The final caveat in the cards
That were played down to the crowds
The future locked away in the wake of a trouble that will never fade
And now
It's here we find you
Where you stand defiant
The proposition was made by the prophets
Your disposition has been stunted and dormant
Look around you you'll see we're upon you
A world to deprive you of all you aspire to
And now
It's here we find you
Where you stand defiant
Do what is right
We told you to
Don't wait 'til it's over
The soaring heights of a chosen few
Will pass like the summer
There's iron in the water
The blood of an unknown soldier
I can't see where I'll find you
I can't find how I'm measured
And now
It's here we find you
Where you stand defiant
How your heart's excited
How your mind's divided
The ground beneath is shaking
The titan's spirit breaking
The fight is overwhelming
The lion suffocating
