[Verse 1]
Gunman, bloodshot eyes
Gunman, grain of sand
Sisters could not sleep
Father is a holy ghost
And there's lions in a cage

[Chorus 1]
It don't matter, don't try to explain
You're just another dog to be trained
Choke-chained
You're gonna end up under tooth and nail
If you catch a tiger by the tail
Don't fail

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
Brother does not dream anymore
Sisters could not sleep
Transformation incomplete, mercy killing those counting sheep
I'm a trigger, quick to fire, punctuate betwixt the eyes
You're clever, it ain't gonna help you

[Chorus 2]
Violence is just an incomplete thought
Coming to a complete stop
Stop
You're so clever, you'll tear us apart
Then masquerade it as art
Not smart
If you can help anyone, help yourself
That's unless you hate yourself
Then don't help
[Bridge]
Angry ants are crawlin'
Makes you wanna scream

[Verse 3]
Lions clawing
Building up steam
Flesh and bone has no persuasion, this is the pathway to my destination
Gunman, where you been?
You're my hero, savior, psycho, slayer

[Chorus 3]
Follow the leader, you lead 'em the same
Slugs punctuate the refrain
Come again?
It don't matter, don't try to explain
You're just a dog to be trained
Choke-chained
You gonna end up under tooth and nail
If you catch a tiger by the tail
Don't fail
I wanna go blind, wanna stare at the sun
De-evolution
