There's a new war starting in the world today
to halve the have-nots while we look away
the game of empire's pawns we fall
right through the chessboard
I will not fall for the black and white
armed with no options, we're ghosts in the fight
I won't pull the trigger on the world for you
underground
in ever city eye to eye
defined by our choices
not where we divide
in every city ear to ear
I hear the echoes of another way
every living day
and I know that I am not alone
inside I know the fault lies with us
too guarded to contact, too frightened to trust someone's heroes are someone's terrorists
watch the elites fall over themselves
to squeeze blood from a stone
I won't sell out my reasoning
and I know that I am not alone
in every city eye to eye
defined by our choices
not where we divide
underground
in every city ear to ear
I hear the echoes of another way
ever living day
and I know that I am not alone
I hear the echoes
and I will not fall for the black and white
armed with no options, we're ghosts in the fight
I won't pull the trigger on the world for you
