The Sweet Revenge - The Unseen Enemy lyrics

<b>The Unseen Enemy</b> by <i>The Sweet Revenge</i><br />It's the end run for your life became a battle cry

For countless frightened souls

And it's been sol long that we've forgotten

What it is we're running from

But with judgement nigh we can't afford to lie

On our laurels for too long

While a shadowed hand turns the bravest men to fools

We've no where else to turn

Was it fear of retribution that left us running for the hills

Or the sound of our aspirations crashing down around our ears

And will the clarion call still lead us crawling back to what was ours

Before the dread of an unseen enemy would leave us scarred and panicked all alone

Opulence and greed so many mouths to feed

Will only slow us down

If we jettison the underprivileged

We might regain some ground

But your answer begs a question with no bottom rungs

How can the top support itself?

And these shells of men, like carrion lay cold

Was it fear of retribution that left us running for the hills

Or the sound of our aspirations crashing down around our ears

And will the clarion call still lead us crawling back to what was ours

Before the dread of an unseen enemy would leave us scarred and panicked all alone
