The Twain Lyrics by Rome

The Lone Furrow

2020

[Verse 1]
You sent them off to cities of fire
To bleed out in the sand
The blind wave would break in fire
Right where the outpost would stand

[Verse 2]
You send forth the best you had
To serve your new guest's needs
But West is West and East is East
Never the twain shall meet, no

[Chorus]
Not in my name, oh no, not in my name
Don't take me for a fool
Not in my name, oh no, not in my name
For I am onto you

[Verse 3]
And with your virtues so out of touch, boy
There's not much left to hold
Any second thoughts now? Hungry much?
They starved you out of a home

[Verse 4]
With what is left of what is right
And long lean thorns between
We'll unlеash a war so utterly vain
No man has ever seen yеt

[Chorus]
Not in my name, oh no, not in my name
Don't take me for a fool
Not in my name, oh no, not in my name
For I am onto you

Not in my name, oh no, not in my name
Don't take me for a fool
Not in my name, oh no, not in my name
For I am onto you

[Bridge]
Not in my name

[Verse 5]
You claim all blades are sheathed now
But you put half a world to flight
For what you want this nation to be
We deem the price too high

[Verse 6]
And these paths you dare not tread
And this you don't want to know
But we marked them with our dead
So many years go and who

[Outro]
Who fought and died and who never needed you
They never needed you
They never needed you

They never needed you
They never needed you
They never needed you
They never needed you

They never needed you (holy saints break these chains)
They never needed you
They never needed you
They never needed you

They never needed you (holy saints break these chains)
They never needed you
They never needed you
They never needed you

They never needed you (holy saints break these chains)
They never needed you
They never needed you
They never needed you
