Just Another Shooting

from War Against War II by Nyentek

/

lyrics

Sirens wail like a mother’s cry as she cradles her child’s body
Lights flash like a disco straight from the pits of hell
A sickening smell of blood, gunpowder, and sweat
What was the motive? It wasn’t determined yet

Anywhere else we’d see public outcry
But in sweet America, it’s just another shooting

The swing set bobs in the cool night breeze
The playground where medics recently passed
Though it should have been where kids played with ease
Today it became for some their last

Anywhere else we’d see public outcry
But in sweet America, it’s just another shooting
Anywhere else we’d see public outcry
But in sweet America, it’s just another shooting

Founding fathers wrote it into law our right to these deadly arms bear
But that was well before these cold, efficient machines
Captured the hearts of youth through violent entertainment
And the NRA argues their right to possess arms trumps the rights of others to live

Anywhere else we’d see public outcry
But in sweet America, it’s just another shooting
Anywhere else we’d see public outcry
But in sweet America, it’s just another shooting

It’s cold
