What started out as love
Has now become a war
You say it’s time to leave
And you’ve been keeping score
You’ve called in mercenaries
In the hope that I might break
But launching that first salvo
Is for sure your last mistake
Patience is not a weakness
Compassion not a crime
You seek an easy victory
Well you’re in for a surprise
Now that you’ve made it a goal
I’ve no time for ideals
Forget a higher call
Or how it makes you feel
Don’t speak of the past glories
Or ask me to remembеr vows
And the dreams we might havе shared
Well they mean nothing to me now
I fear no enemies
And I sure don’t need your friends
I will protect my interests now
And the means will justify the ends
And when the dust has cleared
Bitter you will stay
Treaties will be ignored
Games will still be played
Aftershocks will resonate
You’ll give me no relief
But the struggle and the strife
Sure beats the horror of peace
I’ve now detached myself
From conventions once held dear
The charade it is now over
And my conscience it is clear
