Jericho Lyrics

You're a hero in their eyes

Been that way since '95

I guess it's true; some things never change

So you can lie to these parasites

Everyday of your miserable life

And I know: a hero you'll remain

But I didn't come to say I told you so

I only came to say it is so

You built yourself a house of lies to live in, and I'm going to break the walls down

This isn't war; it's Jericho

Seen a shift at the airports

Voices waver when they talk

I know there's something different in the way they look at me

But I see things a little clearer

Now when I look into the mirror

I like everything I thing

But I didn't come to say I told you so

I only came to say it is so

There's a mystery in your eyes and I'm going to break the code

This isn't war; it's Jericho

Boo me on the streets

They can't stand an honest man

Dream of trading lives

They know they never can

Came here as a savior

Couldn't see it through

You're not worthy of saving

I'm going to save myself from you

But I didn't come to say I told you so

I only came to say it is so

You built yourself a house of lies to live in, and I'm going to break the walls down

This isn't war, no

This isn't war, no

Tell your lovely kids and wife the reason you're staying home tonight

It's not war, no

It's no war, no

It's not war; it's Jericho
