Endgame

From the corners of your suffering
The shadows of your screams
Cracking their knuckles whiter than the fire in your dreams
Endgame, knights and kings
Final surrendering
Defeat as certain now as the torment that it brings

You don't need to count the cards
When you can stack the deck
You don't need to count the cost
When you can't put a price on death

If the bad sleep well
Then the worst are wide awake
Picking their teeth with the bones of the pawns they lay to waste

They just lay it to waste

They don't need to count the cards
They just stack the deck
They don't need to count the cost
Because you can't put a price on death
You don't need to give an inch
When you can take a mile
You don't need to take a hit
When you can make it all worthwile

Reveal attack
Steel pressure crack
Burning gasoline
Full magazine
Complete assault
Set to default
Mass casualty
New reality

Born waiting for the axe to fall
Walk until you crawl
Scratch on the eight ball
You get nothing but they take it all
Head first, brick wall

No way to cover the cost
No way to know what we lost

Guilty of what you live for
Nothing more than the war
