A Shot Rang Out - Emily Jane White

Oh, a shot rang out

Fire up above

There’s one leg left

That you stand upon

My body will not break me

Into the tomb, nationally

Oh, the Veil is thin

Covering your eyes

In blue and red

And black and white

Apocalyptic sun down

The hand that brought the wall down

Sirens ring people flee all around

Covet and hide what you’ve found

Oh, an iron mouth

Closed at the door

There is no truth

Spoken here anymore

A bloody battle we have become

And rampant is the state

All laws are undone

Oh, speak now you forgotten son

'Cause in the belly of this beast

We’re not all one

Oh I walked out of the tavern

And a big weight hit me

And I woke up next to you

You said you’re lost well that makes two

Dreamers we aren’t few

But I don’t want to bury my dreams with you
