faux/fox - brother goliath lyrics

“a man born of violence, shaped by his own hand, felled by a god’s favor in the hands of a child. each step shakes our foundation but the tremors of his voice are greater. brought to his knees by a stone’s throw. brought to me by vengeance. each challenge to a patron, the tossing of a table, brings a warmth to my chest. he wishes for another chance with the israeli king. his blood is but a drop in the lake filled by that king’s hand.”

and i was awake
alive in the life you made
born of my father’s eyes
really it was no surprise
oh, how blindness leads to anger
i was born no lamb for the slaughter
ever since i’d left home, dreams of when bronze meets bone
but i’d learned better than to believe campfire prophecy

“come here that i might feed your flesh to the heavens
come here that i might leave your bones for the dogs”
time would remember our fate and favor your name
even through the oceans of blood that you brought

we’re only separated by a valley
beset by holy snakes
i’ve yelled for forty days
my only answer in the echoes
i’ve waited a lifetime of silence
now, armor ’round my legs, a tight guard ’round my neck
is the violence in my eyes really any surprise?
i’m no sort of friend in this wilderness
bloodl-st arrogance
