Monsters & Men

I. Seasons Of War

Can we meet 'round the bend?
Will you listen, my friend?
I'm not as bad as you might think
Among monsters and men

Now, don't get fooled by the scars
Or the seasons of war
I'm just a simple man like you
Finding out where to go

Isn't it strange how some fanatic always love to feed the fire
The puppeteer is sending all his boys to kingdom come

I just dream like you do
And at times I get blue
It's just the same old "womentalk"
But I try to stay true

Here's a family man
That wanna reach out of hand
But sitting trapped inside this war
In a kingdom of sand

Isn't it strange how some fanatic always lovе to feed the fire
The puppеteer is sending all his boys to kingdom come

II. Prophets And Preachers

Each have their cross, ready to bleed and sacrifice
Prophets and preachers, ready to move into your life
Freedom that do come cheap is treasured alright
But freedom for the underdog means more than his own life

Call him a demon and he'll pour the poison in your cup
Build him a bomb that you'd better advice him not to drop
Freedom that do come cheap is treasured alright
But freedom for the underdog means more than his own life

III. Silent River

Stand by the silent river, river of time
A million souls float by, not really certain why
Some think they're driven by a secret holy plan
Some try to catch a tide, that's hard to understand

The more you look, the more you try
The more you free the inner eye
There's a mountain we could climb

If you dread the final breath, don't you hold it in
One ending, ten beginnings, goodbye to bone and skin
The love that you sent out will hit you in return
Go build the life you wanted, get up, live and learn

The more you look, the more you try
The more you free the inner eye
There's a mountain we could climb
