Cruel Guards I see you in the papers through a foggy lens, Waving with a fist, my team, she always wins He looks into your eyes like an old friend Tells you there's a difference, There's us, us, us and them It's a cheat to make me feel happy when it's on loan, When you aint ever home, no you aint ever home There is a bright, bright heat They are the cruel, cruel gaurds A most unfortunate charm It's always calm, it's always calm Right before you do me harm I lost it once in a market queue, Dropped my bags, felt gagged and left Seeing black and blue Found us drowned in the cobblestone Forget your supplies For the waters will rise on their own It's a cheat to make me feel happy when it's on loan, When you aint ever home, no you aint ever home There is a bright, bright heat They are the cruel, cruel gaurds A most unfortunate charm It's always calm, it's always calm Right before you do me harm It's always calm, it's always calm Right before you do me harm
