Pistol - The Strumbellas

Don’t lose your pistol

Well, that’s what he said

Cause there’s a war and we’ve been forced to wear our heads upon our feet

Well, backed by Jesus

Into a wall

Don’t shoot those missiles

Which I’ve been sold

We weren’t afraid until we heard that thunderous knock upon our door

Well, trapped in treason

Inside the wall

Oh, inside the wall

Well, I’m saying I don’t wanna die

But I will try, oh, I will try

Try to tell the only one I’ve ever loved

Tell the only one I’ve ever loved

Tell her goodbye

They came in numbers

They came in stones

We had to run, run, run, and hide away inside our homes

Oh, black and bleeding

From the war

Oh, from the war

Well, I’m saying I don’t wanna die

But I will try, oh, I will try

Try to tell the only one I’ve ever loved

Tell the only one I’ve ever loved

Tell her goodbye

Oh, and I didn’t know that the words that we said were goodbye

Oh, and I didn’t know that the things that they said were all lies

Don’t lose your pistol

Well, that’s what he said

Cause there’s a war (oh, there’s a war)

And we’ve been forced to wear our heads upon our feet

Well, backed by Jesus

Into a wall

Oh, into a wall

Well, I’m saying I don’t wanna die

I’m saying I don’t wanna die

Oh, I’m saying I don’t wanna die

But I will try, oh, I will try

Try to tell the only one I’ve ever loved

Tell the only one I’ve ever loved

Tell her goodbye
