Protest The Hero Blindfolds aside Lyrics

We woke up as men but tonight
(Tonight we'll sleep as killers)
As we break the cryptic morning
With a bullet and a prayer
The steel never seemed more cold and agile than now
And life never seems less vital and fragile

With a heart that's beating louder than my own
I watch a girl they call Kezia
I watch a woman that I know
My hopes and my own future
(Blindfolded)

To atone for a sin I didn't care for, but a sin that paid my debts
A sin that fed my children and burned my smiles and cigarettes

And no one ever said that hope would be so beautiful
And no one ever said I'd have to pull the trigger on her

I can't even still her trembling hands
That were locked up by the dutiful
And the obligated

Five soldiers forever sedated with the, "No one's responsible"
Psychological drama of our social justice dribble, dribble, dribble

Her tiny steps tell lies about the choice I have to make
(Resurrect a static lifetime starve to death my own mistakes)

Pull the screaming trigger and watch your carcass bleed me dry
Or drop the gun and try to shake away the blindfold from your eyes

Drop the gun!
Drop the gun!
Drop the gun!
Drop the gun!

Sin I didn't care for, but a sin that paid my debts
A sin that fed my children and burned my smiles and cigarettes

Sin I didn't care for, but a sin that paid my debts
A sin that fed my children and burned my smiles and cigarettes
