Common Enemy Lyrics


Now we have a common enemy

Nature's force is staring back at me

I feel alone and know it cannot be

That there are those who still refuse to see

There's nothing you and I can do

There's nothing you and I can say

When the sun burns through it all

Monuments of man will fall

What did it get us in the end?

Flaming day by day

Freezing in the dark

Choking on decay

Fill my lungs with grey

I swear we've heard it all before

Yet we still must do more

We have passed the final hour

Deserted by those who hold power

When the last one's carried away

When the night becomes the day

When the sun burns through our eyes

Will we then have realized?

What did it get us in the end?

Flaming day by day

Freezing in the dark

Choking on decay

Fill my lungs with grey

While the world was scorching

Gluttons fanned the flames

Pissing on their minions

As they play their heartless games

Generations left to toil

A future worse than grim

An endless slog to be alive

The hearts of man grow ever dim
