She's ready to shoot 
 She'll weigh her best shot 
 She's ready to shoot 
    Her neck feels hot 
 She wants it to be a one-hit 
 She wants that a lot   
 She'll put a reason in her mind 
 It's the only thing she'll hear 
 She'll put a reason in her mind   
 It's the only thing she'll hear 
 Build out of faith 
 To wash away the fear   
 The sweet, glazed glance 
 Of total madness in her eyes 
 The sweet, glazed glance   
 Of total madness in her own minds eye 
 It's like she's guarding some remote outpost 
 Of her sacred little empire in the sky   
 Ripping the seams off of acceptable human behavior 
 My baby's got a gun, she's going to use it for her savior 
 And in the main time my faith has left me   
 High up in the rafters 
 And in the main time my faith has left me 
 High up in the rafters   
 If there's no mercy in this land 
 Why would it be there in the ever after?
