"Treachery" lyrics

"Treachery"

The war wasn't over
Took flight, spitfires
On the hill
My pride, lies in embers
Disguise, moonlight
Ever still

Where the wolves run wild
And I am a child
Lost in a world of pretend
Where I tell myself that you've gone to war
So you'll be a hero again

Take hold and commandeer
I know the end is near
Took bullets to my memories
Struck down by treachery

Break ties
Ring the sirens
This won't go down
Bitter pill

Let me bleed out
This town will know your name
They'll hunt you down
Things will never be the same

'Cause the wolves run wild
And I am child
Lost in a world of pretend
Where I tell myself that you've gone to war
So you'll be a hero again

Take hold and commandeer
I know the end is near
Took bullets to my memories
Struck down by treachery
Take hold and commandeer
I know the end is near
And this will be the death of me
Struck down by treachery
