Crossfire

The kings thought the world could not be changed with a ballot
Then flags of revolution reigned because they wouldn't allow it

You can't tear our towers down
We are the architects of a new generation
Laying the cornerstone for a stronger administration

We’ve been idle for too long
And this is where we stop

Cheers to all the ones who have taken a long walk off the short plank of life
Cheers to all my mates who have fallen but get back up in the city of lovers and fighters

You can't tear our towers down
We are the architects of a new generation
Laying the cornerstone for a stronger administration

Can’t tear our towers down
We are too strong
And we cannot be stopped
No not now


We're burning 
Down everything they built for us
With the torch 
They handed down to us
No angel’s 
Indulgences forgiving the blood we've spilt
No candles 
Burning for the limbs you've thrown to war


You can't tear our towers down
We are the architects of a new generation
Laying the cornerstone for a stronger administration

Can’t tear our towers down
We are too strong
And we cannot be stopped
No not now


ARCHITECTS

Why do you need sister morphine
To hold you in the dark
Scratching scars deep in the pits of your arms
And all those pills to ease the pain of growing bored and old
All I need is a glass and a bottle of charm

As long as I can remember I’ve lived a life of indignity
Life’s little kicks mean nothing to me
I think I’ve finally chased away the ghost that haunt my past
So pour another round ‘cause this might be our last

I was jumping off the wagon
While you were burning all your bridges
And turning around and laughing at all your enemies in ashes
But when you’re gone who will recall the lines you waited in
Will your obituary be a punchline?

As long as I can remember I’ve lived a life of indignity
Life’s little kicks mean nothing to me
I think I’ve finally chased away the ghost that haunt my past
So pour another round ‘cause this might be our last

Pour another drink.
