| Face to the window, back to the wall
|
| Ink to a dry page, yield to the sign
|
| Mummy in the casket, Pharoah will evolve
|
| Genie in the bottle, and I’m running out of time
|
| Lines in the sand, hands of a mime
|
| Thoughts that we make from the past we define
|
| I don’t need a gunshot, I just need a trigger (uh)
|
| Finger to my chest, fell in love that way
|
| Stuck until I broke it off
|
| Samsara, find another heart to cross and make it soft
|
| Karma is the shot and the target too
|
| Darkened room gets illuminated soon as the eyes open
|
| The market’s doomed
|
| Heavy eyelids fed sedative diets, bred for compliance
|
| Dead to rights, quick to deny it, make it hard to prove
|
| Solutions shine elusive in the future
|
| Thick behind the dust cover, the suffering we’re used to
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| Why does one man have more beds than he can sleep in?
|
| Where’s the line between competition and preying on peoples' weakness?
|
| When did truth become a sequel?
|
| What’s a starving mouth to say to the land that fed his family for generations
|
| then degraded to chemical sand?
|
| How could a conscious mind find relief when it’s come to believe that violence
|
| is a marker along the path to peace?
|
| Why is advertisment good? |
| Propaganda bad?
|
| Insatiable desire, painting lines inside my lonely head
|
| Learned behavior, trance fix, robotic captain sinking ship
|
| Limbic system, bored with primal impulse, cut the wire
|
| Trip an ego domino effect, letting go, distorted breath
|
| Less amused with my regret, more intuned mindfulness
|
| The time it takes to think my way out of this empty feeling
|
| I will choose to fill my being with the beauty that consumes me
|
| I ruined what confused me, became new
|
| Started being me by doing, every day’s my funeral
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| Truth is simple, no lies, metals bloom, men’ll die
|
| Metal tubes will fly into the sky and who knows what they’ll find
|
| Satisfaction killed the cat, bottle time, this is that
|
| I don’t need a gunshot, I just need a goal to chase
|
| And I won’t say that I know the way, or how to mold the clay
|
| Or control the rain, I just rode the train when I was told to stay
|
| So I fold and pray until I’m old and grey
|
| So how much of my emotional state do I contribute to the things that I do?
|
| Providing a sense of security, death to the purity
|
| Guiding my higher brain through the mazes
|
| Every habit I blindly created when I was awake
|
| Is a testament I use as evidence to support changes
|
| That I make in my life to see order in chaos and accept the pain waves
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I keep hearing gunshots
|
| I keep hearing gunshots
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| I don’t need a gunshot
|
| All I hear are gunshots
|
| All I hear are gunshots |
