Lyrics

Bullet For Your Baby

You got a bullet for your baby
I got a sacrificial craving
Ain't nothing left to take here
Ain't nothing worth saving

Ain't the world cruel
Ain't the world cruel enough for you

You got a pistol for the cure
Sentimental for their war
Give your honour, grieve your soul
Ain't it worth fighting for?

Ain't the world cruel
Ain't the world cruel enough for you

Mama, please close your eyes
You've been sold another lie
All the pain you wanted
Papa, ain't no more time
You've been taken for a ride
All the pain you wanted
I know you hope, I know you're sold
How many times have we heard it before?
Mama, please shield your mind
Can you leave it all behind?
All the pain you wanted

I got a bullet for your baby
You got a sacrificial craving
Ain't nothing left to take here
Ain't nothing worth saving

Ain't the world cruel
Ain't the world cruel enough for you

Your love don't make a sound
Your love don't make a sound
Your love don't make a sound
Your love don't make a sound

Mama, please close your eyes
You've been sold another lie
All the pain you wanted
Papa, ain't no more time
You've been taken for a ride
All the pain you wanted
I know you hope, I know you're sold
How many times have we heard it before?
Mama, please shield your mind
Can you leave it all behind?
All the pain you wanted

I've been loved, I've been judged
I've been a sinner and I couldn't get enough
I've been sold, I've been loaned
I've been to heaven, and I could't find a home

Oh your heart can't be everywhere
