Without A Shot Lyrics

	Put your guns out on the table, throw your bullets on the floor
	This weary old house can’t take it anymore
	From the ovens in the kitchen to the chains out in the dirt
	Rope hanging in the bedroom that’s some of our dirty work
	The distant sleeping shadows that lie out in the yard
	The wind that distorts the meaning of who we really are
	Saluting of ourselves as we pass by our mirrors
	This show of phony adulation just masquerades all our fears
	So we open our eyes at midnight, see the setting of the sun
	Foundation is crumbling, the inner structure’s gone
	Used up by corruption and the passage of time
	We hope we’ve got some fight left'
	Cause our children, our children are dying
	So we think that forgiveness is a
	God given right
	And equality for all is just a waste of our time
	With our nickel plated
	Jesus chained around our necks
	Handing out verses of scripture like we wrote it down ourselves
	Respect that we once had went up the water spout
	Tried to keep it secret but the secret was found out
	Got to thinking high and mighty like everything was a lock
	Some now say this house can be taken without a shot
	So the hole gets dug deeper with every wedding bell
	And we sell each other down the road 'til there’s nothing left to sell
	And slowly but surely we disappear without a trace
	We point our fingers at each other say what the hell happened to this place
	Without a shot, without a shot, without a shot

	Put your guns out on the table, throw your bullets on the floor
	This weary old house can' t take it anymore
	From the ovens in the kitchen to the chains out in the dirt
	Rope hanging in the bedroom that' s some of our dirty work
	The distant sleeping shadows that lie out in the yard
	The wind that distorts the meaning of who we really are
	Saluting of ourselves as we pass by our mirrors
	This show of phony adulation just masquerades all our fears
	So we open our eyes at midnight, see the setting of the sun
	Foundation is crumbling, the inner structure' s gone
	Used up by corruption and the passage of time
	We hope we' ve got some fight left'
	Cause our children, our children are dying
	So we think that forgiveness is a
	God given right
	And equality for all is just a waste of our time
	With our nickel plated
	Jesus chained around our necks
	Handing out verses of scripture like we wrote it down ourselves
	Respect that we once had went up the water spout
	Tried to keep it secret but the secret was found out
	Got to thinking high and mighty like everything was a lock
	Some now say this house can be taken without a shot
	So the hole gets dug deeper with every wedding bell
	And we sell each other down the road ' til there' s nothing left to sell
	And slowly but surely we disappear without a trace
	We point our fingers at each other say what the hell happened to this place
	Without a shot, without a shot, without a shot

	Put your guns out on the table, throw your bullets on the floor
	This weary old house can' t take it anymore
	From the ovens in the kitchen to the chains out in the dirt
	Rope hanging in the bedroom that' s some of our dirty work
	The distant sleeping shadows that lie out in the yard
	The wind that distorts the meaning of who we really are
	Saluting of ourselves as we pass by our mirrors
	This show of phony adulation just masquerades all our fears
