Holding the Gun

Feel another day go by
 Ask for everything, get a lie
 Here's another big idea
 Ask for nothing, get the truth
 There's a lot of people dead and
 Everybody else's hands look red
 I just can't shake this dream i had
 Where i'm holding the gun
 Steal another dollar bill
 Given opportunities, again you will
 The butler did it, the tailor lied
 But not i, they had me tied up tight
 There's a lot of people dead and
 Everybody else's hands look red
 I just can't shake this dream i had
 Where i'm holding the gun
 I arrived at a meeting
 I remember meeting you there
 We arrived at very different conclusions
 I remember you saying nothing
 You would have said the same thing of me
 We arrived at very different conclusions
 So we sit and disagree with our tv
 Shelve our responsibility
 Swallow facts like they were food
 Smoke some dope and watch the news
 We all hold the gun
 At one time or another
