lyrics

No Easy Way Out

A little something you like
For every inch that you fought
The totem coin keeps you prayerful
Won’t quit ‘til you have the lot
Over our bodies you climb
Beyond the average devout
You’ve made it clear who you care for
There’s no easy way out

An ugly truth washed up ashore
Sand in your mouth, won’t be long
The howl of nations you ignored
Now what was precious is gone

Care for me now
Care for me now

A little something you like
Tint every pain, problem solved
Whispers creep in under your door
Exterminate, your default
For every dog comes a time
To cast the chains off his snout
I hope that day you’ve prepared for
There’s no easy way out

The silent edge wages it’s war
Tell me whose side are you on
A fitted gag for every roar
Now all that’s precious is gone

Care for me now
Please care for me now

A little something you like
Pretend it isn’t your fault
These days you’ve got to be careful
Now there’s no easy way out

The trumpets crying tone so pure
Everyone’s new favourite song
For us there will be no encore
When everything precious is gone

Care for me now
Please care for me now
