As Cities Burn - two faces ten paces Lyrics

As Cities Burn Lyrics

"two faces ten paces"

I got lazy yeah I want it easy
I will tell you to hell with praying for my enemies
I hold my grudge like a winning ticket for the lottery
I just won't budge from this hill I'm dying on
Waves break on my empathy and the coast erodes
There's consequences for the shit you did
I wanna forgive it. But I still go to bed livid
What a thrill to relive it

We don't see eye to eye
Here we stand back to back
Ten paces, turn, and aim
Who will live to hear the blast echo off the landscape?

I don't care if I'm right
Fighting for my right to hate
It's hard labor at daybreak
Fighting for my namesake

But then again what's there to defend?
I keep my friends at arms length
While saving my strength for my enemies
I used to believe in forgiveness
But God's too slow with His vengence
Lucky for me the light's dim but not out yet
I'll regret this I'm sure
But I don't care

I don't care if I'm right
Fighting for my right to hate
It's hard labor at daybreak
Fighting for my namesake

We don't see eye to eye
Here we stand back to back
Ten paces turn and aim

Who will live to hear the
Blast
Echo off
The landscape?
Two faces ten paces
