Intro Verse 1 If you had looked You might've just seen them Strut in the background You'd see the oceans Swell and the mountains shook You'd see a million colors if you really looked Now, quick, the night draws near Her curtain spreads clear The safety's off, but the gun has no trigger If you had looked, you'd be no one's coward Distance, justice, power You'd glimpse the password You wouldn't need the book You'd own both slave and master if you just had looked But now the banks all close And nothing gets bigger The crowd will yell, but the gun has no trigger If you had looked, you might reconsider Or, just maybe, you already have They want you sleeping You watch their garbage cook You'd weep a bowl of tears if you had looked But now the gate comes down The pangs are growing dimmer You hold a gun to your head, but the gun has no trigger
