I was climbing, now I´m falling
I´ve been pushed off by a man
Who has made it to the top
And now defends it ´cause he can
And I have found a breach in his front line

I was open, now I´m hidden
From the danger of his words
I have found a good position
And I´ll play for what he´s worth, and he will find
Nowhere left to hide

I will lift her love and I´ll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I´ll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we´re all just cynics on the run
If we´re all just cynics come undone

I was losing, now we´re drawing
I´m not afraid to draw my blood
I´m not backing down
So I´d surrender ´cause you should
And face the truth
You raise the flag, I´ll tear it down
Though you may have won the battle

But I´ll take the fight to you
And your flag is on the ground
And your bones they rattle too
´Cause I´ll break you
Your fear has now come true

I will lift her love and I´ll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I´ll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we´re all just cynics on the run
If we´re all just cynics come undone
All just waiting for the gun
We are tied to the truth
The tie that binds me to you
I´m acting on my words
With all that I have heard
With honesty in mind
You will find
That I´m not the liar
See the truth in my eyes
No, I´m not the liar
See the truth in my eyes

I will lift her love and I´ll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I´ll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we´re all just cynics on the run

I will lift her love and I´ll break your spirit
I will dig a hole and I´ll throw you in it
Only time will tell if we´re all just cynics on the run
if we´re all just cynics come undone
