Balance Of Power Lyrics

You know that he's got the power to beat you
But he can feel the cold of your blade against his back
It's pointing to the void where the spine is supposed to be
The only movement now is breathing in and out

Neither of you dares to take the first step
Afraid of the consequences of the smallest mistake

Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
He who endures wins and can dictate
Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
Waiting for the other to lose their strength

When will this morbid dance end
When can you finally sit back and relax
When can you leave behind the fear and insecurity
When can you move forward without constantly watching your back

Beat the enemy
Without suffering
Irrecoverable loss

Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
He who endures wins and can dictate
Still, like one frame in a stop-motion picture
Waiting for the other to lose their strength

Waiting for this cold war to end
