Like brothers, a plot uncovered
This is an emergency, people will suffer
So urgent in that phone booth right before you fall
The phone rings twice, that’s the end of the call
I wake up in a cold sweat, oh the irony
Everybody knows how my temper’s so fiery
Now I’m in dire need, up against a wall
The situation’s critical, the storm follows calm
Face to face, terrified then you fall
The phone rings twice, that’s the end of the call
I wake up in a cold sweat, oh the irony
They took you away from me like it was piracy _
You’d be above ground if only I’d been around
Talking to Elicia, your voice still resounds
Your blood drowns your family’s portrait when you fall
The phone rings twice, that’s the end of it all
[Hook - 0:56]
Just know that in darkness, you sparked the start of this
I’d burn down the Arctic just to get an armistice
Vengeance cathartic, in death you’re a part of it
Your killers might be heartless but I’m getting to the heart of it
Even in darkness, you sparked the start of this
I’d burn down the Arctic just to get an armistice
Vengeance cathartic, in death you’re a part of it
Your killers might be heartless but I’m getting to the heart of it
[Verse 2 - 1:16]
I wake up in a cold sweat, oh the irony
Remember when we pledged we would build a better dynasty
You’re clarity and focus in a phase of confusion
The government sent us to the front then we moved in _
A false dichotomy at war about who wins
Human weapons used to kill humans
Kept me alive in dark times at Ishval
The phone rings twice, the end of the call
I wake up in a cold sweat, oh the irony
Gonna end this madness, driven, you inspired me
Candidly you thrived at humanity organically
Loaded with devotion to your work and your family
No going back as the dirt hits your casket
Fuel for the fire in this darkness to flash with
Rest in peace, Hughes, your sacrifice calls
The phone no longer rings, that’s the end of it all
[Hook - 1:53]
Just know that in darkness, you sparked the start of this
I’d burn down the Arctic just to get an armistice
Vengeance cathartic, for in death you’re a part of it
Your killers might be heartless but I’m getting to the heart of it
Even in darkness, you sparked the start of this
I’d burn down the Arctic just to get an armistice
Vengeance cathartic, for in death you’re a part of it
Your killers might be heartless but I’m getting to the heart of it
