Hold the land under the gun
Hold the truth like a candle
Gone to hell under the gun
Swollen men, blind with power
With their lies raising the danger
And he'll die reaching for freedom
In the end only the losers
Break the rules, one by one
No more wars will be won
On the love that's left to believe in
Take a long hard look at a heaven
See the child, young and hungry
He was born under the gun
Growing wild, on the run
No more time, no more chances
Of their games under the gun
Let it shine like the sun
