Neurosis - Stalemate lyrics

rate me

I woke up in the morning, spent the night in the trenches<br />

again<br />

The first thing I do is grab my gun<br />

The enemy is near, it was dangerous to sleep<br />

I was lucky to have lived to see the sun<br />

In a foreign land fighting for my country<br />

Over words that the politicians said<br />

I look and meet the eyes of an enemy soldier<br />

Aiming his gun at my head<br />

Stalemate...<br />

Panicked thoyghts run through my mind<br />

Visions of my death unwind<br />

Standing there shaking in terror<br />

I clutch my gun in despair<br />

We look eachother in the eyes<br />

Then we both realise that our roles are the same<br />

I put down my gun and he walks away.
