Devil and the Gun

He comes to work or church or school
He gets a pass cause he looks like you
Then he takes everyone away
Leaves us here to pick up the change

Find a quiet place for the ones you love
There's no escape from the devil with the gun

He visits you in your darkest hour
Selling suicide disguised as power
Tells you freedom has a price
You have no choice, you have to buy

A man is at the door and there's nowhere left to run
You can't ignore the devil with the gun

He comes to town bearing thoughts and prayers
Sends our children over there
They take out all our enemies
And leave a hole in the family

This is how they become
The devils with the guns
We have become
The devils with the guns
