Lyrics
Friendly Fire David D?Alessio © 2002
Did you seed these tidal changes
Months before they happened?
Did you trap our perfect pastures with dark thoughts?
You?re saying one thing but shadowing something
Help me understand this?
Do you speak your mind or do you speak your heart?
Chorus:
How many lives were lost how many truths were tossed
In the friendly fire? Who will bear the witness of your ways?
How many dreams were crushed how many fragile hearts in the cross fire,
Dress your shiny ego as a keepsake?
Are you loving, are you with us
Do you think we?re making progress
Does everything you say end with a question mark?
You deceit will run complete when you mine the gold from the wreckage.
Is there anything to say that will make you stop?
Chorus
Bridge
I see right through you
And I know your ways
What you?re hiding
Won?t escape.
Chorus
