Dateline early sunday morning
Shots ring out without a warning
No one seems to even blink in this town
Two dead and a baby missing
Sirens screaming in the distance
A mother pleading bring my baby home now
For the pink slip of an SUV
A night cut down with tragedy
His defence another generation breakdown
*what is the distance between a bullet and a gun
God are you listening
Or have you just given up*
Corporate countries go to war
Behind the lies they're fighting for
And black gold from an old king's soul won this round
How can someone take a life
In the name of god and say it's right
How does money lead to greed
When there's still hungry mouths to feed
*what is the distance between a bullet and a gun
God are you listening
Or have you just given up*
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love
We need some hope
We need it now
A little faith, man help me out
I'll learn to pray
But it's too late now
Solo
*what is the distance between a bullet and a gun
God are you listening
Or have you just given up*
What is the distance between a bullet and a gun
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love....
a lot of love...
