lyrics

Well you called the shots for the last time
'cause no I'm can't just sit idly when you put the red line
across us and you're giving us a faith full of filth
and now I can't breathe

Over and out, how I can I win now
when this is your war
and I am outnumbered S.O.S
over and out, how can I win now
cause this is our war, and I've got an “x” on my back

(Close your eyes) I'm counting to ten
could this make it easier?
Twist the knife, I guess i'm not what you wanted me
to be but i stand in front of you broken now
Cause you can't be wrong and I know
I can't wake up from this, I can't back down from this
but you will see, that even as you run your mouth
can't take away all my thoughts all the fight in me.

Well you called my bluff for the last time
Cause no I won't let you get away with that shit
your lies have cut us and severed all
the ties we bound this is ending now

Over and out, how I can I win now
when this is your war
and I am outnumbered S.O.S
over and out, how can I win now
cause this is our war,
I'm blindfolded, I can't fight back.

(Close your eyes) I'm counting to ten
could this make it easier?
Twist the knife, I guess i'm not what you wanted me
to be but i stand in front of you broken now
Cause you can't be wrong and I know
I can't wake up from this, I can't back down from this
but you will see, that even as you run your mouth
can't take away all my thoughts all the fight in me.

So point your finger, I know you will.
Cause it’s easier.
It's so easy to blame me...
So point your fingers, I know you will
Cause this is my war.
