lyrics

Maybe some time they used to call us friends
that age is now no more
for all the things you've done there's no amend
so I will give you your war

You hide behind your iron mask of lies
not even you believe
what you can't grasp is that it made you blind
that is what I can't forgive

Point of no return has passed
We will meet soon: may the die be cast

You say I'm blind but can't see
your actions are plain naive
raising shields to guard, but assaulting me

You seem to think you know best
your words no one can contest
things are never black or white as you guess

These are not lies I tell
your thoughts are fake as well
doesn't make them true just because you yell

Where is that man I know
now only loathing grows
burning what's left of a long time ago

Oath made in candor
bonds of much higher standard than blood
brothers in arms and vouched trust
know
not one man shall forego
plights we take and hold

Kinship of virtue
molded on ceaseless nurture, my friend
rapports of union never end
shout
so the sky never doubts
of such a steadfast vow
