Antiphon Lyrics by Midlake

Antiphon

2013

[Verse 1]
Find the poor all kneeled down before
He who takes and defiles
I want more, I want more

[Verse 2]
Idols wore fine wool at the door
To revile then forsake
Fight a war, fight a war

[Chorus]
Antiphon, antiphon…
Fight a war, fight a war…

[Verse 3]
Tried and bore, blame for all ignored
Head contrived, tongue applied
Nevermore, nevermore

[Bridge]
Antiphon antiphon antiphon antiphon…
Antiphon antiphon antiphon antiphon…

[Verse 4]
I want more than kneel down before
Fight a war, they sit at the door
Nevermore, all to be ignored
To the call, a response
