Lyrics Kissing a Handgun - The Zealots

Kissing a Handgun

I know I’m not a preacher,
But I speak the truth,
The next generation of the broken youth,
Misguided misled,
The lies we’ve been fed,
Cut me wide open with no reaction,
You’re not a prophet I can see right through,
The lies,
The pain,
Your self righteous gain,
So come one,
Come all,
We got a front seat at the end of the world tonight,
Are we blinded by the fast life?
Are we deaf to the cries of humanity?
You’re in the dark without a flashlight,
Get up, get out, shape up, and ship out,
We got it all in the palm of our hands,
We got a good grip till we’re dead in the sand,
We got to get out do you understand?
That I have been calling,
So stop with the stalling,
Answer me this,
Will you see the crack of dawn?
Isn’t it the light at the end of the tunnel,
Ready to take you on?
Take me on, take me on,
We’re flirting with a noose and were kissing a handgun,
(C-c-c-call it like I see 'em now)
I told the truth, you didn’t choose to listen,
(C-c-c-call it like I see 'em now)
Running away from all the things you face another problem piled up in the
corner,
You’ve got the faith to change the way,
You got the heart that breaks,
Are you starting to see things clearer?
Wipe the fog in the bathroom mirror,
Take a look at yourself,
And look nowhere else,
Please take a look at yourself,
Is that the person that you want to be?
Or just another public enemy,
Take a look at yourself,
And look nowhere else,
And shout it out at the top of your lungs,
Take me on, take me on,
We’re flirting with a noose and were kissing a handgun,
(C-c-c-call it like I see 'em now)
I told the truth, you didn’t choose to listen,
(C-c-c-call it like I see 'em now)
Running away from all the things you face another problem piled up in the
corner,
You’ve got the faith to change the way,
You got the heart that breaks,
I know I’m not a preacher,
But I speak the truth,
The next generation of the broken youth,
Misguided misled,
The lies we’ve been fed,
Cut me wide open with no reaction,
You’re not a prophet I can see right through,
The lies,
The pain,
Your self righteous gain,
So come one,
Come all,
We got a front seat at the end of the world tonight,
We’re flirting with a noose and were kissing a handgun, (Yeah)
Time passed away,
She had nothing to say,
Don’t be afraid,
Never let them take your souls,
Break down what little walls,
Society has left for you,
Be something new,
Be something new!
