Don't act like you've been silent
I know how you spread that web of contradictions
Wide like so much cover fire

Keep watch for the mines
Keep watch for the mines

Be careful who you wave that tongue at 'round here
I've seen smarter acts than yours get disappeared
If you keep swinging that knife all over this town
You are bound to get your own back stabbed

Keep watch for the mines
The concealed dangers
The traps and the coils of the wires
With their sharp razors

The ditches and the trenches
And the smiles of the gravediggers
And if you're told the answer needs no questioning
The answer is a lie

Keep watch for the mines
Keep watch for the mines
Keep watch for the mines
(Will they bleed everyone out?
Will they bleed everyone out?)
Keep watch for the mines
(Will they bleed everyone out before they die?)
Keep watch for the mines
(Will they bleed everyone out?
Will they bleed everyone out?)

Keep watch for the mines
(Will they bleed everyone out before they die?)

Keep watch for the mines
The concealed dangers
The traps and the coils of the wires
With their sharp razors

The ditches and the trenches
And the smiles of the gravediggers
And if you're told the answer needs no questioning
The answer is a lie

Keep watch for the mines
Keep watch for the mines
