letra de under siege on payne street - renouncer
[verse 1]
well, look who’s come on back again
he’s a tough b-st-rd to k!ll
but this time i swear he’s picked his dying hill
i can’t find him but i feel him
in the frayed edge of the real
his sulfur stink seeping under every sill
there was no first shot heard round the world
no declaration date
the trap was set, just up for me to take the bait
i tried to shock the enemy
guns blazing in his f.o.b
how could i have known he would antic-p-te?
[chorus]
but you won’t see it
ain’t no pockmarks in the storefronts
nor a shrapnel-shredded treeline
no lane choked with dеbris
oh, father, how can i make you beliеve it?
yes, i’m under siege on payne street
and it’s either him or me
[verse 2]
i got weird looks at the laundry
and a couple mocking grins
my socks had jumped straight from the washer to the bin
in my defense i was distracted
i grazed the floor with nervous eyes
hands unchecked while my head told me sweep for mines
and one afternoon the sun flashed hard
off of steel in the church tower
it was the gravestone or my head
so i chose the concrete shower
oh, i zig-zagged to the gateway and only then i caught my breath
the puzzled gravedigger said “boy, you look like death”
[chorus]
but you won’t see it
no bloodstains on the outside
no blue lips in the firelight
no scars your eyes perceive
oh, father, how can i make you believe it?
yes, i’m under siege on payne street
and it’s either him or me
[post-chorus]
oh, our war
let it be the last one
[bridge]
and if some lucky shot finds my foe unaware
with trembling hands i’d roll the body over
but i’d know well that haunted stare
[outro]
(oh, father, how can i make you believe it?)
(yes, i’m under siege on payne street)
(how can i make you believe it?)
(yes, i’m under siege on)
(oh, father, how can i make you believe it?)
(yes, i’m under siege on payne street)
(how can i make you believe it?)
(yes, i’m under siege on)
