lyrics

You bought a pile of death and you're framing it like resistance. But you're just skipping hand in hand with hands that punch down, and you're so insistent on defending you and yours? You're really just afraid of minorities and the poor. The target that you paint fades into your skin. Your idea of justice is just childish revenge. But at least you can ask my dad what kind of gun he was given when he was drafted into a war he wanted no part in. But at least you can ask my wife what kind of gun Bryant used when she saw the end result of your dearly held, childish views.




I just don't get guns. I mean I get it when you live in the country andstuff but I don't get the people who think they need a handgun to prevent crime or whatever. All the shit you own is worth killing someone over? Or you're so fucking awesome that if someone shoots up the joint you're going to go all navy seal and take them out? Fuck off. For white well off australians like me and probably you it's just a bullshit macho culture that can get in the bin (there's definitely a greater argument to be made about oppressed minorities and the ways to resist state violence, that I'm too dumb and middle class to have an opinion on). I just can't see why people who have the opportunity to reject that sort of culture don't take it. I can't see why you need to own something designed with the explicit purpose of killing someone else.
