Nous Sommes la Guerre

Nous sommes la guerre

Nous sommes le contraire

Nous sommes l’opposition

Nous attendons le porteur de lumière

I can feel the shadows enter

Rising from the earth

Now that everyone is

Giving me the widest berth

I have nightly visits

Sentient absence watching me

Nurturing the itch

Where other worlds are scratching me

When I heard the voices from below

Gently telling me where I should go

Speaking demon tongues in stereo

Face the undetermined

Let it show

So could you

Hold my fire?

Would you arise and

Meet me where the sparks ignite?

Nothing’s new

It’s just the fear that

Something’s coming after you

It’s the brimstone sparkling

Touching me at parts unseen

Just a sharp reminder

Prodding at what could have been

Would you share my burden?

Help me lay this ghost to rest

If you disagree

Then please pretend it’s for the best

Every trial that we must undergo

Trapped between the current and the flow

Melodies above the hellish drone

Sound the unrefined

And let it go

Nous sommes la guerre

Nous sommes le contraire

Nous sommes l’opposition

Nous attendons le porteur de lumière
