Thou shalt not kill remember that

You learnt it again and again when you were young

They said weapons have this safety catch

Your moral conscience tells you kid what's right what's wrong

Well they make out like they're so surprised

But it's easy when you're civilised

Count to ten close your eyes

The way it's always been

Shot eighth shot eighth shot eighth

I think I was a bit surprised

I never knew I was so anaesthetised

And triggers pull so lightly and people die so easy

I never realised

Yes I believe in common laws

I believe in even scores

I understand the rules of war

The way the slate is cleaned

Shot eighth shot eighth shot eighth

Wo who wants another christian martyr

Who wants someone else's pain

Who wants the world on their shoulder

Who wants to have to cry in vain

Who wants to have an open sore

Eating away deep inside you

Who wants to torture themselves

When there's plenty eager to do it for you

Well years might heal all the scars

But I don't know if you feel like you have that time

And if I was the man that killed your father

And if I said I'm sorry would that change your mind

Well no one should be so surprised

That words don't pay for victims' lives

It's teeth for teeth eyes for eyes

The way it's always been

Shot eighth shot eighth shot eighth

Shot eighth shot eighth
