A Gunshot to the Head of Trepidation Lyrics
You starve your children on neglet
Then feed their bellies with fear
Concussion bat to the brain
Witness to a battered mother
Your abuse will end right here
No longer will your family fear
A gunshot to head of trepidation
My promise if you ever lay a finger
Just look at the scars you make
Your terror makes your kids break
A broken home just as you were raised
With fist raised up to your children
This battle is on all
You've made beautiful
Now hateful
You wretched life wrecker
Abuser
Now suffer
Open fire
On the desire of the man
Open fire
With strife we'll strike down the hand
(Open fire, build the pyre)
If I can't make you see the damage you've made
(Open fire, build the pyre)
I'll make you wish you'd never been alive
Then feed their bellies with fear
Concussion bat to the brain
Witness to a battered mother
Your abuse will end right here
No longer will your family fear
A gunshot to head of trepidation
My promise if you ever lay a finger
Just look at the scars you make
Your terror makes your kids break
A broken home just as you were raised
With fist raised up to your children
This battle is on all
You've made beautiful
Now hateful
You wretched life wrecker
Abuser
Now suffer
Open fire
On the desire of the man
Open fire
With strife we'll strike down the hand
(Open fire, build the pyre)
If I can't make you see the damage you've made
(Open fire, build the pyre)
I'll make you wish you'd never been alive

Awesome song, amazing chorus i even the chanting towards the end that brings the chorus back one more time!
Hey,Hey,Hey,Hey,Hey...so 80's metal ohh ya!
I think its meant to be a play on this "hey! Hey! Hey!" which a lot bands also like metallica do live but in this song it fits the music really well ^^
I think it's about threatening to kill someone if they harm the people they love
And the 'hey! hey!' think is awsome, especially when they do it live
To be more specific I think its about him threatening to kill an abusive father. hence the "your children" and "your kids" and he also says "a battered mother" which could be the wife. Makes sense to me..........
Im in the music video for this song...they shot it on 6/21 and I was an extra..it was soo awesome..look out for it sometime in the next month or so
sweet! i wanna be an extra for it!!! damnit! was it cool? youre proabably never gonna read this and im prolly not coming back to this, i already know the lyrics... its about an abusive father...
This song resenbles something i saw on A&E today about a abusive grandfather and how his family kills him.
i alos thought it mean " I think its about him threatening to kill an abusive father. hence the "your children" and "your kids" and he also says "a battered mother" which could be the wife. Makes sense to me.........."
amazin song!!!!
well there you go
my band just covered this song and everytime i sung it i felt like i wanted to punch the song writers father cause i felt it was about him living in a broken home abused by his father
