[Verse 1]
Dateline, early Sunday mornin'
Shots ring out without a warnin'
No one seems to even blink in this town
Two dead and a baby missin'
Sirens screamin' in the distance
A mother pleadin', "Bring my baby home now"
For the pink slip of an SUV
A night cut down with tragedy
His defense another generation breakdown

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah
Yeah

[Chorus]
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
God, are you listenin'
Or have you just given up?

[Verse 2]
Corporate countries go to war
Behind the lies they're fightin' for
Black gold from an old king's soul won his round
How can someone take a life
In the name of Go and say it's right?
How does money lead to greed
When there's still hungry mouths to feed?
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah
Yeah

[Chorus]
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
God, are you listenin'
Or have you just given up?
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love

[Bridge]
We need some hope
We need it now
A little faith can help me out
I'd learn to pray
But it's too late now

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah
Yeah

[Chorus]
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
God, are you listenin'
Or have you just given up?
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love
What is the distance
Between a bullet and a gun?
God, are you listenin'
Or have you just given up?
We need forgiveness
We all need a lot of love
We need forgiveness
We all need a lotta love
[Outro]
La-la-la
Yeah
