 Cool!
If  you had looked
 You might've  just seen  them
Strut  in the background
You'd  see the oceans
Swell  and the mountains shook
You'd  see a million colors if  you really looked
Now, quick,  the night  draws  near
Her curtain spreads clear
The safety's off, but  the gun  has no trigger
 If you had looked, you'd be no one's coward
 Distance, justice, power
 You'd glimpse the password
 You wouldn't need the book
 You'd own both slave and master if you just had looked
 But now the banks all close
 And nothing gets bigger
 The crowd will yell, but the gun has no trigger
 If you had looked, you might reconsider
 Or, just maybe, you already have
 They want you sleeping
 You watch their garbage cook
 You'd weep a bowl of tears if you had looked
 But now the gate comes down
 The pangs are growing dimmer
 You hold a gun to your head, but the gun has no trigger
