Barrier of Protection

I see lights in the distance
I hear a rolling thunder
My city is laid bare to the enemy.

Ravines are dug
Walls are built
Great are my defenses

Yet a friend knocks on the gate
And I let him in with open arms
But from within will be the destruction

I fear the coming battle
Brought to these thick walls
I am ever vigilant at the lookout

I see my friend and I go to him
He hides his eyes
As he pulls a knife from his pocket

The struggle begins
As the war is brought within the walls
And my city is in danger of catastrophe

I am able to throw him from my city
But my trust now gone has ripped me of allies
For no one now passes the gates of my walled city.
