Lyrics

Play the fence, one way you're gonna fall

Playing it safe leads to inevitable failure

Sometimes I don't know who you are at all

Uncertainty about understanding your true identity

Your opinion is something that you've got inside

Your perspective or belief system

But I see the loyalty has up and died

Perceived betrayal or loss of loyalty


Your skeletons

Your hidden faults or secrets

My skeletons

My hidden faults or secrets

Life is only getting shorter

A reminder of life's brevity


You can be my enemy and I don't care

Indifference towards being viewed as an enemy

Keep throwin' stones at yourself

Continuously self-destructive behavior


Stories run in circles that have no end

Cyclic and repetitive nature of stories or issues

I hit on luck, then you bum me out again

Luck followed by disappointment caused by you

There's a way that you keep the truth in check

Manipulating or concealing the truth

Scratch the surface and treat it like a broken neck

Superficially handling a serious matter


Keep the peace when face to face with the scene

Maintaining calmness in a challenging situation

Got a hunch that ain't what you really mean

Suspicion that your intentions aren't genuine

Weather's fair, does that change where you stand ?

Does changing circumstances affect your stance?

My back is turned and the knife is in your hand

Feeling betrayed while being vulnerable


Your genocide

Your destructive actions or influences

My genocide

My destructive actions or influences

Like is only getting shorter

A reminder of life's brevity


You can be my enemy and I don't care

Unaffected by being considered an enemy

Keep throwin' stones at yourself

Continuing to harm oneself

You can be my enemy and I don't care

Indifference towards being seen as an enemy

You try too hard and I can tell

Recognizing excessive effort from your side
