[Verse 1] Feeble bones took me to a valuable weakness There's no comfort in silence No real violence in words So I, sharpened my blade and bowed my head before I ceased and desisted And though my stomach was a ball of resistance I went straight for the course [Pre-Chorus] With burns on the backs of my palms Will I regret my cause? or revel in my thoughts? I'm caught in the winds of remorse Cause everybody knows [Chorus] What good is a sword, next to a shotgun What good is a sword, next to a shotgun What good is a sword, next to a shotgun [Verse 2] How did I get stuck in this valiant position When either I'll survive for an instant Or cradle the earth? My God forsaken, weakened pulse, I knew I had to amend this Though I never was a force to be reckoned, or A sight to behold [Pre-Chorus] With burns on the backs of my palms Will I regret my cause? or revel in my thoughts? I'm caught in the winds of remorse Cause everybody knows [Chorus] What good is a sword, next to a shotgun What good is a sword, next to a shotgun What good is a sword, next to a shotgun [Outro] Am I biting the bullet alone? Oh I know that I'd rather be bold (What good is a sword, next to a shotgun) And we're biting the bullet alone Oh I know that I'd rather be bold (What good is a sword, next to a shotgun) Am I biting the bullet alone? Oh I know that I'd rather be bold (What good is a sword, next to a shotgun)
