Counting the Fallen - Close Your Eyes and Count Your Curses (feat. Elijah Price)

There's a battle at the end of this dirt road
Tears, sweat and blood cover the holes
Of the dying men who fight for what they think they love
Take a closer look
Both sides aren't even reading from the same book
It's a war being fought over the unknown
When will they open their eyes
And read between the lines
That all the things they despise
And love are things that align
They don't even know that the reason that their fighting
Is the product of blinding ignorance
This battle isn't what it's made out to be
In the two sides minds they've made it seem
As if they've got their own armies building them up
But it turns out it was only two men all along
Take a closer look
Both sides are blindfolded it's as if they took
Part in this war as a preface before
The details and the lore were acknowledged as the core
When will they open their eyes
And read between the lines
That all the things they despise
And love are things that align
When will they open their eyes
And read between the lines
That all the things they despise
And love are things that align
So let's just cut the crap
This war that we've been waging
Silent fighting unfair weighing
Creating tension in the space
That occupies our happy place
This isn't what we planned for
Disassemble then reword
We blindly cut the ties that
Helped prevent our own demise
When will we open our eyes
And read between the lines
That all the things we despise
And love are things that align
When will we open our eyes
And read between the lines
That all the things we despise
And love are things that align
When will we open our eyes
And read between the lines
That all the things we despise
And love are things that align
We don't even know that the reason that we're fighting
Is the product of blinding
