Jump The Gun Lyrics


Metal Church Jump The Gun

[Verse 1]
There's no other place to run
And nothing new under the sun
Don't we hear the tolling of the bells?
I thought we got beyond all this
With marching and the angry fist
Still we stand up shouting "What the hell"?

[Pre-Chorus]
Like rats in a cage with uncontrolled rage
You lie to my face with a smile
The message was lost and we pay the cost
Of keeping your evil alive
[Chorus]
Thy kingdom come, you jumped the gun
You jumped the gun again
Thy kingdom come, you jumped the gun
You jumped the gun again
You jumped the gun again

[Verse 2]
Don't tell me it's a peaceful faith
I see the devil in your face
While you're killing in the name of God
Police yourselves is what I say
Prove it or just go away
Bloody hands are all you really got

[Pre-Chorus]
Like rats in a cage with uncontrolled rage
You lie to my face with a smile
The message was lost and we pay the cost
Of keeping your evil alive

[Chorus]
Thy kingdom come, you jumped the gun
You jumped the gun again
Thy kingdom come, you jumped the gun
You jumped the gun again
You jumped the gun
[Bridge]
This living hell
Sometimes it's hard to tell
You've been deceived
Don't you point that thing at me

[Pre-Chorus]
Like rats in a cage with uncontrolled rage
You lie to my face with a smile
The message was lost and we pay the cost
Of keeping your evil alive

[Chorus]
Thy kingdom come, you jumped the gun
You jumped the gun again
Thy kingdom come, you jumped the gun
You jumped the gun again

[Outro]
Thy kingdom come
Thy kingdom come
You jumped the gun
