You and Me of the 10,000 Wars

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You and me of the ten thousand wars Dividing life into factions of pleasures and chores A bed to be made and a bed to lie in A hand in the darker side and our sights set on Zion [Verse 2] The heart of a skeptic and the mind of a child Put my life in a box and let my imagination run wild Pour the cement for my feet The heart and the mind on a parallel course Never the two shall meet [Chorus] And oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied Everybody loves a melodrama And the scandal of a lie Still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes Still waters [Verse 3] Try making one and one make one Twist the shapes until everything comes undone Watch the wizard behind the curtain The larger than life and the power of seeming certain [Verse 4] The evil ego and the vice of pride Is there ever anything else That makes us take our different sides? I wanted everything to feed me About as full as I got was of myself And the upper echelons of mediocrity [Chorus] And oh, the dissatisfied with the satisfied Everybody loves a melodrama And the scandal of a lie Still you held your arms open for the prodigal daughter I see my eyes in your eyes through my eyes Still waters Still waters [Verse 5] After the battles and we're still around Everything once up in the air has settled down Sweep the ashes, let the silence find us A moment of peace is worth every war behind us [Outro] You and me of the ten thousand wars
