War by Proxy

Hidden lies pull the strings from outside
Proxy forces strike back without discretion
Corrupt ties push for wars to divide
Secret sources that sway the mobs obsession

War
Do you know who you fight for
How can you be so sure
The blur obscures even more
Battles will rise
Escape the shape and disguise
Away from prying eyes
Forget the threat and the lies
That will compel you

Rage
Dominate
Full engage
Final fate
It is war by proxy
Walk on down the line to
Cage
Decimate
The end stage
Fatal hate
It is war by proxy
Who keeps track of the game score

Dying on a foreign shore
Crying no more
Cling on to life
Call for survivors
Reach for the sky
Fly higher
Trying not to relapse through
Strive to avoid the traps
But efforts will just collapse

Disgrace flows
No more honor to show
The taint assures conflict comes with contention
Violence grows
Led forth by the shadow
A lie secures nothing with such pretension

War
Do you
Know who you fight for
How can you be so sure
The blur obscures even more
Battles will rise
Escape the shape and disguise
Away from prying eyes
Forget the threat and the lies
That compel you

If only you knew how
Would you see lift the shroud
Could it be the key
If only you knew now
The control
A dark cloud
The old toll they stole
If only you knew how
To be free
To allow
A plea unto thee
If only you knew now
This is real
You could vow
Feel
Heal
