You′re standing your ground (standing your ground)

Ready to die on the head that you built out of lies

In deception, raising your weaponEvery word you speak, dropping with venom

You're playing with fire

Preparing for war

I′m ready to settle the score

You're sounding the alarm

Well I'm trying to remain

In the calm before the storm

Calm before the storm

I don′t wanna fight (I don′t, I don't)

′Cause I don't like the way it feels, those cutting words that never heal

Behind the barricade you′re tossing grenades

While I'm trying to settle it disengage

You′re playing with fire

Preparing for war

I'm ready to settle the score

You're sounding the alarm

Well I′m trying to remain

In the calm before the storm

Calm before the storm
