Eliminator

As I put my gun to the head of God

Thoughts of all the things I should have done

Is the mirror of life always what you claim

Are you looking at a cause or a blame

Because in this place you gotta know

Right and wrong are you ideas of the old

Fallen angels rule the city of empty souls

Did you see it when the time was just right

In a lifetime of years too late

The word that longed in your sacred heart

Spray painted on Heaven's gate

You turned to see if I was standing there

I'd face myself if I could only dare

Content is hard but when you giver it up

A little bit more to have to do with luck

To have to say

To take it back and put it away

To come another day

You were stuck in a world of the endless stripe

Shining like the fuse of the sun

It's amazing how some of us get through life

Refusing to be part of the phoneysome

Raining on parades of the pretentious and cold

With the mind of a child and a heart made of gold

I try to be good but when they rattle the cage

our heads are dead so it's all the same

To have to say

We were really happy for once in our lives

To say we have survived

To take our lives by the throat

And to look inside

To ignore is just to lie
