"Trigger-Happy" (Alternative rock/metal)

(Chorus) Trigger-happy gunman
Finger at the ready
Pull the trigger any moment
On anyone unsteady

Picking off the weak
Leaving only the strong
No more do the meek
Roam the streets

Power to the people
Only the select few
But mistrust rules the world
More and more of it grew

(Chorus)

So the gunman takes the ready
Aim for the enemy's head
Trigger-happy gunman
Gets his way again

The man counts your strengths
Hoping that there are few
Don't ever turn you back
The victim could be you

(Bridge: style change)
So high and mighty, you feel
Like the highest mountain in the range
Keep that feeling close
because lies are your only friends now
(bridge continued)
He's righteous, you know?
Killing off the unworthy, you know?
Making the world a better place, right?
Until you realize: those people could be you

(Chorus)

(Outro: Style change)
Fading from consciousness
Falling, accelerating, speed always changing
Fall faster now (4x)
One of us…
