Thunder One Bullet
One bullet, one gun
One dead, but we all bleed son
And you know it's such a shame
One life, more tears
I can't believe that it's going on here
God knows it's such a shame
Take a look at America
'Cause it's much too late
Once the horse has run
You can't go back and shut the gate
If we ever see the day
When all innocence is gone
Tell me, what have we become?
One child in the way
Wrong time at the wrong place
And you know it's such a shame
Too young to live in fear
But you ain't got the time
To be a kid 'round here
Lord knows it's such a shame
You shouldn't have to worry now
When you barely reach fifteen
You got enough to cope with anyway
If we can't protect the young
From themselves it would seem
We're watching as our future slides away
Why in this crazed new millennium
Do we still have so much to learn?
Tell me why
When it's clear in the past every scared kid would run
Now he's wrapping his fist 'round a gun
And somebody dies
One bullet, one gun
One dead and we all bleed son
And you know it's such a shame
One life, more tears
I can't believe that it's going on here
And you know it's such a shame
You know it's such a shame
