When the damage is all done And the pain has been conceived It’s going to be hard To pick up pieces we once believed The devastation left behind Is all we can comprehend Its left here to remind us Of a faction filled with hate and sin When the smoke clears We stand tall We won’t shoot you in the back We won’t call We want to see the look on your face When your final curtain falls When the smoke clears When the tallies have been made And the dead have all been buried The ticking clock will remind them That their time cannot be tarried Cause it is just a matter of time Until the hunters find their hunted And they pay their price at the gate Going to hell is not what they wanted When the smoke clears We stand tall We won’t shoot you in the back We won’t call We want to see the look on your face When your final curtain falls When the smoke clears |
