Drop Your Guard
I hear what you are saying
I'm just a little wary
Of how the words are carried
Behind your teeth
Malice in your translation
Replay the accusations
Until the final phrases
Cut like defeat - cut like defeat
Drop your guard now
Put down your arms
Won't you let your heart breathe
So often reenacted
Shadows of darkened habit
Tongue like a hidden dagger
Quick to release
Time now to pause and wonder
How we've been torn asunder
Long are the years and moments
Lost in between - lost in between
Drop your guard now
Put down your arms
Won't you let your heart breathe
Fury the fire that crumbles
All else reduced to rubble
Gather the poison plunder
Dead at our feet
One flame can flicker forth
Until it ignites a chorus
Destroy the spark that bore it
Ashes to dreams - ashes to dreams
Drop your guard now
Put down your arms
Won't you let your heart breathe
I'm just a little wary
Of how the words are carried
Behind your teeth
Malice in your translation
Replay the accusations
Until the final phrases
Cut like defeat - cut like defeat
Drop your guard now
Put down your arms
Won't you let your heart breathe
So often reenacted
Shadows of darkened habit
Tongue like a hidden dagger
Quick to release
Time now to pause and wonder
How we've been torn asunder
Long are the years and moments
Lost in between - lost in between
Drop your guard now
Put down your arms
Won't you let your heart breathe
Fury the fire that crumbles
All else reduced to rubble
Gather the poison plunder
Dead at our feet
One flame can flicker forth
Until it ignites a chorus
Destroy the spark that bore it
Ashes to dreams - ashes to dreams
Drop your guard now
Put down your arms
Won't you let your heart breathe
