West of Summit: precipice of war

Описание: lyrics:

How can it be
You’re too blind to see
Maps on the table
Ash in the tea
We traded our warnings
For screens in our hands
Kept saying “one day”
Till it stained the sand


Old flags in the hallway
So
Blind!

All these quiet conversations
Loaded like a fuse

Headlines in your heartbeat
Sirens in my head
Every word we’re choosing now
Chooses who ends up dead


We are so close
To what we swore we’d never be
How far we’ve come
From the kids we used to see
Now how far we fall
Through a door we can’t ignore
We are on the precipice of war
(preci–precipice of war)
We are on the precipice of war


You talk about numbers
I think about names
You call it “strategy”
I just see flames
You sleep through the sirens
Say “it’s just the news”
I’m counting the futures
We’re about to lose


We are so close
To what we swore we’d never be
How far we’ve come
From the kids we used to see
Now how far we fall
Through a door we can’t ignore
We are on the precipice of war
(preci–precipice of war)
We are on the precipice of war


We’re on the precipice of war
So close you can taste the blood in the air
Too far from the day we swore
We’d never let it get
Never let it get to here
How can it be that you’re too blind to see
How close we are
How far we fall
We’re on the precipice of war (of war)

go!

If I reach for your hand
Will you pull it away?
If I spell out the cost
Will you still wanna pay? (hey)
If the silence is louder
Than the words we said before
Tell me what are we waiting for?

(RAAAHHHH!)
ah-ah!


We are so close
To what we swore we’d never be
How far we’ve come
Now we’re hanging by a plea
And how far we fall
If we step just one step more
We are on the precipice of war
(preci–precipice of war, oh)
We are on the precipice of war
So close you can taste the blood in the air
Too far from the day we swore
We’d never let it get
Never let it get to here
How can it be that you’re too blind to see
How close we are
How far we fall
We’re on the precipice of war (of war)
