Ammunition

You think you are something
Leaning back, laughing
at those you think are mindless
Smarter than you think
I can play the game
Go ahead, shoot again
I can take it
It just makes me the strong one
That you are afraid to be
Your life has become so limp
you have to throw your words around
as if they mean something
Hurting those who only mean well
Go ahead, give it your best shot
if you have enough ammunition
