Ben Harper - Both Sides Of The Gun lyrics

Living these days is making me nervous

Archaic doctrine no longer serve us

Now we're left as silent witnesses

We don't know quite what this is

Other than a war that can't be won

I feel like i'm crowded, i can't get out

World keeps on filling me up with doubt

When you're trapped you got no voice

Where you're born you got no choice

Other than to go and take you some

One dimensional fool

In a three dimensional world

Politics, it's a drag

They put one foot in the grave

And the other on the flag

Systems rotten to the core

Young and old deserve much more

Than struggling every day until you're done

Tension

Too much to mention

Living on both sides of the gun
