A Subtle War

Metal Church


Extended hand a friendly man who doesn't trust a soul 
I wonder why that meeting eyes could put your life on hold 
Do people feel humanity is something of the past? 
A kind hello, a favor done, these days could be your last 

Bar your windows, lock your doors, choose your colors 
And stay down on the floor 
Amidst a subtle war that's right outside your door 
Amidst a subtle war 

You can't go there at night 
unless you're feeling immortal 
'Cause all of them have guns and knives, 
at least that's what we're told 
A neighborhood or DMZ, but people call it home 
Scared to death of living there, but got nowhere to go 

Bar your windows, lock your doors, choose your colors 
And stay down on the floor 
Amidst a subtle war that's right outside your door 
Amidst a subtle war 

Pick your weapon 
Talk to no one 
Paranoia 
Can we take this anymore 

Amidst a subtle war that's right outside your door 
Amidst a subtle war
