Album: Horseshoes & Handgrenades (2010)

Shot Heard 'Round The World

With my bloody fists raised to the sky

[Verse 1]
I've swallowed all your lies
That the time of my expiration's drawing nigh
Breaking ties tonight
You can see it in these eyes
I will not let you dictate how I live and how I die
The more things you sow the more things I burn

[Pre-chorus]
Never will you see me fall to you
I'm rising with my bloody fists raised to sky [Revelation 12:11]

[Chorus]
You can't stop this fire now
You can't blow it out
Everything will change
Here comes the shot heard round the world
You can't slow this fire down
You can't take it out
Everything will change
Here comes the shot,
This is the shot heard round the world [Psalm 35:1 / Colossians 2:14-15]

[Verse 2]
I embrace the sight of pain
These medicines are just poisons by another name
And if it's time to play the game
Then let's border on insane
As I recklessly abandon all attachments to me
I touch the sun while you touch the rain

[Bridge]
Where is the sting?
Where are the fangs that haunted me?
Where is the sting? [1 Corinthians 15:55]

1 Corinthians 15:54-58 / Revelation 12:10-11
