Track 01 from the "Don't Give In" EP

lyrics

As I'm made immobile with wonder, I think
Of just where my blaming finger should go
Is it the man in the suit, the white overcoat of the shrink
Or the man selling bread to the beggars below

This life is nothing more than tricksters in sheep's clothes
Anticipating your every move
Be wary of who you lend your hand out to
His best interest may not lie in you

Upon your arrival, he'll prepare you a feast
And entertain you with worldly distractions and spirits
Little do you know that you're in for a treat
The poison will sink in before you can flee from it

This life is nothing more than tricksters in sheep's clothes
Anticipating your every move
Be wary of who you lend your hand out to
His best interest may not lie in you

In eternal night, nor the moon or the sun
Provide enough light to hide us from the evil ones
For they lurk all around, in open fields, underground
Inside our cathedrals and all over our battlegrounds

This life is nothing more than tricksters in sheep's clothes
Anticipating your every move
Be wary of who you lend your hand out to
His best interest may not lie in you
