Defense Mechanism Lyrics by Demon Hunter

Exile (Deluxe Edition)

2022

[Chorus: Max Cavalera, Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Rival hearted
Spirit guarded
Social tension
The fury of dissension is my
[Post-Chorus: Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Defense mechanism
Defense mechanism
[Verse 1: Ryan Clark, Max Cavalera]
Face to face
My premonition is indifferent
To the dirt in my eyes
Found my place now (Exiled)
Free of all the fleeting ties
[Pre-Chorus: Ryan Clark, Max Cavalera]
Suffer through the silence
I overpower violence
To channel disassociated wrath
[Chorus: Max Cavalera, Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Rival hearted
Spirit guarded
Social tension
The fury of dissension is my
[Post-Chorus: Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Dеfense mechanism
Dеfense mechanism
[Verse 2: Max Cavalera]
Fade to thrive
I'm growing tired of being
Fed a steady ration of lies
Built your wasteland
Now run
Cower as the oceans rise
[Pre-Chorus: Ryan Clark, Max Cavalera]
Suffer through the silence
I overpower violence
To channel disassociated wrath
Born in their divide
Ascend upon the tide
Sworn to a higher path
[Chorus: Max Cavalera, Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Rival hearted
Spirit guarded
Social tension
The fury of dissension is my
[Post-Chorus: Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Defense mechanism
Defense mechanism
[Instrumental Breakdown]
[Bridge: Ryan Clark, Max Cavalera]
Under the weight of our distance
I will define my truest aim
[Chorus: Max Cavalera, Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Rival hearted
Spirit guarded
Social tension
The fury of dissension is my
[Post-Chorus: Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Defense mechanism
Defense mechanism
[Outro: Ryan Clark & Max Cavalera]
Defense mechanism
Defense mechanism
