Shoulder Holster Lyrics

	


(Alright)
I am the new
For reasons I can never explain
I speak the truth
I put an end to all your pain
I want guilt, I want to drag you right through your past
I'm on a role
And I'm moving way to fast

(Alright)
Aren't we always looking over our shoulders
Aren't we always drawing guns from our holsters

I'm at the start to check every hour of the day
I stand well above
And mould you with my clay
Out of the depth, every soul can pay a fee
Those who are kept
I'm gonna set you free

(Alright)
Aren't we always looking over our shoulders
Aren't we always drawing guns from our holsters

I'll shed light
Tear apart all you believe
One of us
Grateful for all you receive
Make it up, do you find it hard to contain
Pray in God, can you hold it all inside your brain

(Alright)
Aren't you always getting scared of the future
Aren't you always thinking someone will shoot you
Aren't we always looking over our shoulders
Aren't we always drawing guns from our holsters

I think I might be wrong, but isn't this song about revenge?

Love it though, it's so up beat but kinda dark if you listen to the words.

My guess is how we are always "on guard". Quick to judge and defend.

Hey, does anybody know where that "Alright" audio sample is from? It sounds so very familiar, but I just can't place it...

well, it seems this is a song about the relationship between me and christian, because i had it always in my ear and singing it when we felt in love and he had done a lot of mean things to girls before, many affairs and ons in the past but to me he turned out to be very true and trustworthy and we are a family with children and everything right now so for some ununderstandable reason i was the girl he became finally serious with.
