Automatic Rifle

the night I turned 25 it was legos on the floor /
it seemed like a safe enough game / for a man to play with his daughter / an automatic rifle and a bullet through the window / and the troops are satisfied that justice had been delivered

that was enough to set the spark of a vision in another / 18 years - 18 year old girl - to see herself a martyr /
to keep up with the cycle / of an automatic rifle and a bullet through the window /
and the troops were satisfied that justice had been delivered
close your eyes to the suns blinding light /
a three story concrete house and a steady paycheck / cause open eyes will be / infected with politics / and even a smart girl can end up / with a bomb strapped to her chest
