rogue assassin

i'm an irishman that's

never been to ireland

but the gift of the gab lies

in my repartee with my friend liam o'brian

he and i are like brothers

same cloth cut in different colours

enkindled a kinship

till a hypocritical king up and ripped it from us

the innocents living in lisbon didn't do this

how can achilles even live with this shit

as if they were insiginfant

zip

cold killing

whole cities are ripped into bits

it seems the ability to think is a gift

sinking a ship

then retreating back to the mist

as if we didn't exist

i need to relieve the tension

my deep intention

is to seek redemption

speak in sentences too bleak to mention

when i pledge allegiance

every previous debt to creeds

i've yet to leave

just ends effective immediately

left free to vent my grivenances

to strengthen weakened links

and heal the rifts

between the people that should be free

but even me just feeling this is treasonous

if this the creed

i don't belive in it

i'm leaving it

even if it means that i'mafugitive

i'm feeling sick

i swear to uphold the principles

of the templar order

giving no quarter

i swear to uphold the principles

of the templar oder

going rogue

then i'm going all out

i swear to uphold the principles

of the templar oder

giving no quarter

i swear to uphold the principles

of the templar order

going rogue

then i'm going all out

when even royalty is feeling raw

you'll see that loyalty is cheap

for the right pile of coins

you'll leave your boy lying in a soiled heap

such hypocrites

just little bit

and i'm loathe to laugh

but how can you think that you're doing good

roasting flesh and bones to ash?

there's a total lack of evidence

'cause no one yet invented photographs

so i asked the question

no assassin was supposed to ask

i'm a motormouth

that goes and blows the gaff

with social gaffes

but eden's over grown

it's only me that weeds and mows the grass

ice breaker

lift taker

got a job to do

i'll die later

my faith in what's right's shaken

mabye i should be more like haytham

slice blades

in a liear's face

if he tries playing

any mind games

but my heart stayed

in the right place

so my mind changed

every five days

read the far flames

see the fire blaze

in the fireplace

there's a charred face

it's a hard case

trying to find the right way

through a dark maze

when i'm facing it

sideways

can't remember my name

am i shay?

i can't say

but i know i'm chased

so i shan't stay

au revoir mate

i swar to uphold the principles

of the templar order

giving no quarter

i swear to uphold the principles

of the templar order

going rogue

then i'm going all out

i swear to uphold the principles

of templar order

giving no quarter

i swear to uphold the principles

of the templar order

going rogue

then i'm going all out
