Lay down your weapons
New gods, no heaven
Old words, wrong questions
Real war, dream captains
Two men dead, call it the duck-walk murders
Eleven more shot down in Pittsburgh
One more celebrity behind the trigger
Kalamazoo put out the Uber killer
Jack the ripper in a Silverado
White Chapel, blue state, Chicago
Bill Calley, Van Dyke, McDonald
200 ribbons and a family photo
Bring down the old heavens
New world, no question
Dreamgirl, dead husband
My war, your weapons
Jason Dalton went to see the devil
He saw the black hand on his cell phone
Kevlar, go and blame the gun store
A 9 mil, left the wife and kids home
And became a lifetime member
No record, first-time offender
They wanted blood, but he surrendered
He was a family man and honest father
Matt Mellen heard the famous phone call
From a son, “Bring home some take out”
“Leave me here, please, that one’s my house”
Fried chicken and a new Ford Taurus
And I’d like to see the family photos
Of a man walking on a tightrope
Like a black horse in the gunsmoke
Get married, take a family photo

Twist the Knife

Let's go for a drive
Scratch our names into the weeping night
Under lidless skies
Kiss me beneath the neon lights
Everything is fine
In the shadow of the great high-rise
Love will never die
I believe that's what they'll advertise
Pray for justice now
I saw the footage man, and this is so played out
You trust the system, we blame the victim
Tell me what's your name? That's how we do things now
They say we'll do what's right
But the dark is rising and the rope is tight
And no one here can say for sure
But someone's gotta burn, come on twist that knife
And now
You want justice now
But the dark is rising
He's standing at the gate, he's a modern man
And he's got friends to make it right
Friends in higher places
Friends in higher spaces
Everything is fine
In the shadow of the great high-rise
