When your pride is pulling triggers
And nobody is left standing
Tell me where's the God in that
You can say the war is over
Try and sell that to a mother
Sent away her heart and got back a stone
Now it's quieter than she's ever known
Takes one second to breathe in and out
One decision to believe or doubt
One heart beating echoes in a crowd
Cryin' for change and only tears get out
Mam's cryin' bullets in the sky
Raining, raining tears on each side
Fight for love don't love the fight
Mama's cryin' bullets in the sky
Now the fewer and the braver
Hope and pray their faith won't waiver
Then fate taps them on the shoulder
A blink of an eye
The path of fear
We're being led to tread
Is paved with wasted life
When your faith lights the canon When your pride is pulling triggers And nobody is left standing Tell me where's the God in that You can say the war is over Try and sell that to a mother Sent away her heart and got back a stone Now it's quieter than she's ever known Takes one second to breathe in and out One decision to believe or doubt One heart beating echoes in a crowd Cryin' for change and only tears get out Mam's cryin' bullets in the sky Raining, raining tears on each side Fight for love don't love the fight Mama's cryin' bullets in the sky Now the fewer and the braver Hope and pray their faith won't waiver Then fate taps them on the shoulder A blink of an eye The path of fear We're being led to tread Is paved with wasted life Explain Request ×
