Song Description

Reflections on recent mass murder in Allen Texas

Lyrics

We're heading for a reckoning, in violent, random times
When bullets spit staccato, like peppered angry rhymes
When shootings spread like crazy fires, leaping across the sun
And death erupts like a tornado with a gun


It seems like death in Texas comes
Like a tornado with a gun
As meaningless as the twisters
That rip and blindly run
Insanely egalitarian
In the misery lottery won
It seems like death in Texas comes
Like a tornado with a gun


When the fractal spread of rifle fire engulfs our native land
Perhaps it's time to finally stop and finally take a stand
Reject the hate that proliferates and puts us on the run
As death erupts like a tornado with a gun


Chorus
