Music & Lyrics: Michael O'Reilly
(C) 2015 Michael O'Reilly/The Brothers Union
One day I'll see you up in your throne
I'll either please you or be gone
You'll ride a high horse like the king
Too bad you won't learn a damn thing
Inside your courtyard there will be pawns
Little do they know what you bring on
Your ways are cunning like a villain
Build up an army so you know you're winning
There will be blood and tears stretched out upon these fields
This land was never yours, you came and you drove me out
Your prisoners are naive in the sense that they'll never know
You'll think I'm a coward until I prove you wrong
You know there will be a night to come
The battle of man with years too young
I already see the look in your eye
Your haunts are tearing up your insides
There will be blood and tears stretched out upon these fields
This land was never yours, you came and you drove me out
Your prisoners are naive in the sense that they'll never know
You'll think I'm a coward until I prove you wrong
You looked up to me
I was one to believe
