OPPONENTS

((( Narrator )))

Approach the finish
Man running strong
Don't know synchro shotgun blasts
Weren't race alarm
He's not alone
They all misunderstood
The man and his opponents
Ran stronger than they should have

But they suddenly understand
There are far worse opponents at hand
Terrorism is intensely revealed
With two shotgun blasts
That probably killed both the victims

But they stand their ground
'Cause they've got spikes on their feet
They've been preparing to beat
Since the season began
The other men and the man
Far worse opponents at hand

When there's nowhere left to run to
You achieve what you can
The opponents pose a challenge
To an oft challenged man
With a union of his former opponents
Competition begins
But the killing continues
Competition ends and nobody wins
Except opponents in the stands

[words & music by Sean Schuyler]
