Lead to Life

I'm gonna take this gun and melt it down
Turn it to a shovel and shove it in the ground
I'm gonna melt this gun
I'm gonna melt this gun

I'm gonna take this shovel and toss some dirt
Over my shoulder and with it all the hurt
For all the sons
All the lost daughters and sons

I'm gonna plant some seeds and say some prayers
Even if no one's listening up there
I'm gonna say a prayer
For whoever cares

Melt them all down
Put 'em back in the ground
Melt them all down
Put 'em back in the ground

I'm gonna take this gun and melt it down
So not another goddamn shot will sound
I'm gonna melt this gun
Gonna melt this gun

I'm gonna melt this gun into molten fire
Better that yet another funeral pyre
I'm gonna melt this gun
Gonna melt this gun

Oh hear my plea and the mothers' cries
Light the forge not for death but life
Oh, light the fires
Light the forge fires

Melt them all down
Put 'em back in the ground
Melt them all down
Put 'em back in the ground

Melt them all down
Oh, melt them all down
Melt them all down
Oh, melt them all down
