Lyric Fortunes Of War
(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.
