The Closer We Get

Ten thousand soldiers marching
Seven horsemen ride
One man leading them
To the other side

Separate factions dressed for action
Bleeding in the sun
Cloak and dagger, lifeless stagger
The world has come undone

Hypnotized, I close my eyes
Hear the siren's call
Rocket fire, war's desire
The shot before I fall

And the closer I get, the more I regret
That my time has come

Revolution in the air
They have the upper hand
He won the battle, but lost the war
And waits to take command

Men in line, they stand behind
Guard without a sound
What he doesn't know won't hurt him
The gun has one more round

And the closer he gets, the more he regrets
That his time had come
And the closer they get, the more they regret
That their time has come

Through the skies we hear their cries
Explosions in the air
On the ground without a sound
Death is waiting there

Blinding light through the dead of night
Prayer becomes a plea
With their covered faces
Only God can set them free

And the closer we get, the more we regret
That our time has come
And the closer we get, the more we regret
That our time has come
And the closer we get, the more we regret
That our time has come
And the closer we get, the more we regret
That our time has come
