Did you bring your gun today?
They said you'd need it yesterday
The man his mind is not so well
In his world he lives in hell
He believes your eyes glow red
And that you'd like to see him dead
In his face he looks just fine
That he would never cross that line
Yet in that bar he brought his past
And decided they would breath their last
So I ask again answer me
For in this country we are free
In your mind the demons play
All your pursuers you will slay
Your medicine you'll throw away
So did you bring your gun today?
