It's the sound that hits it home
We're reaching farther away
We used to hold this life alone
We never aspired to be
A little fall will mess you up
I've got my eyes on site
A promise sewn beneath my lips
The missle clouds in the sky
The kid's getting low and he's fading
Lock and load
Bullet's spraing clean and we're bracing
For hard times to come
And there's no waiting
And it's down to you
Shrapnel skin over naked bone
The bomb's far and away
United armies giving up
They made the same mistake
Defying fate and suffering
Riding the system to breathe
Inside the soul of city streets
Anxious to be redeemed
The kid's getting low and he's fading
Lock and load
Bullet's spraing clean and we're bracing
For hard times to come
And there's no waiting
And it's down to you
