[00:14.27] Thou shalt not kill remember that
[00:17.76] You learnt it again and again when you were young
[00:24.78] They said weapons have this safety catch
[00:27.53] Your moral conscience tells you kid what's right what's wrong
[00:35.45] Well they make out like they're so surprised
[00:38.34] But it's easy when you're civilised
[00:41.11] Count to ten close your eyes
[00:43.80] The way it's always been
[00:46.42] Shot eighth shot eighth shot eighth
[00:50.32]
[01:02.08] I think I was a bit surprised
[01:06.08] I never knew I was so anaesthetised
[01:12.79] And triggers pull so lightly and people die so easy
[01:17.78] I never realised
[01:23.52] Yes I believe in common laws
[01:26.41] I believe in even scores
[01:29.03] I understand the rules of war
[01:31.56] The way the slate is cleaned
[01:34.24] Shot eighth shot eighth shot eighth
[01:38.26]
[01:49.68] Wo who wants another christian martyr
[01:52.90] Who wants someone else's pain
[01:55.52] Who wants the world on their shoulder
[01:58.20] Who wants to have to cry in vain
[02:00.89] Who wants to have an open sore
[02:03.51] Eating away deep inside you
[02:06.22] Who wants to torture themselves
[02:08.59] When there's plenty eager to do it for you
[02:12.40]
[02:22.13] Well years might heal all the scars
[02:26.22] But I don't know if you feel like you have that time
[02:32.71] And if I was the man that killed your father
[02:36.21] And if I said I'm sorry would that change your mind
[02:43.35] Well no one should be so surprised
[02:46.22] That words don't pay for victims' lives
[02:48.88] It's teeth for teeth eyes for eyes
[02:51.56] The way it's always been
[02:54.24] Shot eighth shot eighth shot eighth
[02:59.70] Shot eighth shot eighth
[03:02.76]
