Justice In the Barrel

Hey, mister, can you help me?

I'm a loner on the run

I'm just lookin' for tomorrow

And I ain't gonna hurt no one

I jumped headfirst into a bottle

I was lookin' for a friend

Came up just short of nothing

I didn't find the truth, I only found an end

So, tell me who's gonna save me

Or my father or my son

When the only justice a man can see

Is the barrel of a loaded gun, oh, yeah

I been broke and I've been hungry

I think they're both my middle name

But I don't never, ever, never seem to get enough

Still, I guess I can't complain

'Cause what you get in life, you take it

You gotta hold on, make it last

They say good things come to those who wait

But it's life that goes so fast

And when there's just one rule you live by

Each day, you kiss the risin' Sun

When you live and die by the lives we breathe

In the barrel of a loaded gun

They talk to me in my sleep at night

And a gun somewhere burnin' with my name

Winners are losers

And losers will have to face

All those yesterdays

And all of the dreams they blew away

So, mister, can you help me

Or are you my gun?

Have the ghosts of justice brought you here to me to taste the

Barrel of a loaded gun

There's justice in the barrel of a loaded gun

Justice in the barrel of a loaded gun

Justice in the barrel of a loaded gun

Justice in the barrel
