In The Fingernails

There’s a new war starting in the world today to halve the have-nots while we look away the game of empire’s pawns we fall right through the chessboard I will not fall for the black and white armed with no options we’re ghosts in the fight I won’t pull the trigger on the world for you underground in ever city eye to eye defined by our choices not where we divide in every city ear to ear I hear the echoes of another way every living day and I know that I am not alone inside I know the fault lies with us too guarded to contact too frightened to trust someone’s heroes are someone’s terrorists watch the elites fall over themselves to squeeze blood from a stone I won’t sell out my reasoning and I know that I am not alone in every city eye to eye defined by our choices not where we divide underground in every city ear to ear I hear the echoes of another way ever living day and I know that I am not alone I hear the echoes and I will not fall for the black and white armed with no options we’re ghosts in the fight I won’t pull the trigger on the world for you.
