Just a Trigger Pull Away
Just a Trigger Pull Away…
I analyze the situation to simplify the complication
But it doesn’t get any easier to see, so I retreat within
The doors are shut and I’m locked and loaded
Just a trigger pull away…
One solution to escape self-persecution, locked and loaded
I’m just a trigger pull away from the light of better day
I write the words that remain unspoken,
I translate the meaning through darkened eyes
And in between deepened lines
I bear the weight of an unbalanced world, locked and loaded
The doors are shut and I’m just a trigger pull away
A trigger pull away from the night
And the light of a better day…
