Lock And Load lyrics

Well I wish I had a nickel
for every time I fell
and blamed somebody else
I d give a ton of money
to the ones I ve hurt
and I d still be sittin pretty well

I ve spent years losin touch of
what s right and what s real
Caught up in these missions of my own
And you re tellin me you
think I ve done so damn well
While we re sittin here
a thousand miles from home

There s a hole in your wisdom
a hole in your sky
Two holes in your head where the
light s supposed to get by

Time to lock and load
Time to get control
Time to search the soul
and start again

So many times I ve seen chances disappear
I hesitate and watch them slip away
Like the time I fail to
spend with the ones I love
And it s gone as sure as yesterday
All these users and fakers
big time takers
manipulating everyone they see
I get caught up in their schemes
and their useless dreams
And the only one I have to blame is me

I get turned around and twisted
pulled left and right
I can see where I m goin
but I can t see the light

Time to lock and load
Come in from the cold
Take a different road
and start again

I can sit here in the back half of my life
and wonder when the other shoe will fall
Or I can stand up point myself home
and see if I ve learned anything at all
anything at all

Mediocrity s easy, the good things take time
The great need commitment, right down the line

Time to lock and load
Come in from the cold
Pay these debts I owe
and start again

I ve been down this road
I ve seen things get old
Time to get control
and start it all again

Time to lock and load
Time to get control
Time to search the soul
and start again

I ve been down this road
I ve seen things get old
Stand up, get bold
and start it all again

Time to lock and load...

(repeat to fade)
