Stalemate

[Verse 1: Dave Edwardson]

I woke up in the morning

Spent the night in the trenches again

The first thing I do is grab my gun

The enemy is near it was dangerous to sleep

I was lucky to have lived to see the sun

In a foreign land fighting for my country

Over words that the politicians said

I look and meet the eyes of an enemy soldier

Aiming his gun at my head

[Refrain: Chad Salter]

Stalemate

[Verse 2: Dave Edwardson]

Panicked thoughts run through my mind

Visions of my death unwind

Standing there shaking in terror

I clutch my gun in despair

[Verse 3: Dave Edwardson]

We look each other in the eyes

Then we both realise

That our roles are the same

I put down my gun and he walks away

Did that sound good?
