Warpaint - Manicanparty

Bullets flying past me

Hitting the brick wall

But my eyes see nothing

They won’t open at all

I’m kneeling down on the ground

I slowly stand with empty hands

Finger steady as she lowers the gun

Says she don’t wanna hurt anyone

But she can’t release

She can’t release the trigger

Put your war paint on

Stomp your feet hard on the ground

Kick the dirt up to the heavens

Shoot me down

Shoot me down

She throws it deep out in the water

The moonlight makes the metal glisten in the dark

She knows now

I am not the victim

We’re equal

A tongue for a tongue

We don’t make a move afraid of the other

As the earth starts to tremble our feet start to shuffle

As the line between us stands up and starts to dance

Put your war paint on

Stomp your feet hard on the ground

Kick the dirt up to the heavens

Shoot me down shoot me down
