[Dedicated to the memory of Brian Deneke]
|
|
Each town has its cliques those who don't get along
|
and then there's towns I know where certain kids just don't belong
|
so know your rivals and watch your back
|
'cause no one's gonna be there when the enemy attacks
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
When the justice eludes you it's the fortunes of war
|
wouldn't things be different had the tables been turned?
|
If the people won't protect you you must fend for yourself
|
when the justice eludes you it's the fortunes of war
|
|
You drove right over him and then you sped away
|
how does it feel to kill and know you didn't pay?
|
So walk away even though a life is gone someday,
|
you'll know the price when god repays you for your wrongs.
