Armor
will these desperate messages
go up in smoke
the ones you'll never read
until i finally explode
left at my defenses
this steel won't provide much protection
you're alone without your armor
and begging to skip the steps
"please get to the end for starters"
[chorus]
you don't want to face what can't be stopped
and its too hard to understand
why you're the prey i seem to caught
can't see the future soldier?
is your badge really made of honor
brought up righteously
with a lying knight as your father.
[vrs.2]
you stole your shield
i count that as a crime
can't hide from what's chasing
or predict the damage
im sorry but you've just run out of time
[chorus]
[vrs.3]
the clocks alarm is set
no point in trying
you should have seen my signs
and know id have no mercy left
because this war is one you won't forget
