Robots With Guns

They had their guns
And they had their principles
We were in love
Yeah, we were invincible
Or so we thought

Even the best of us
Shares the delusion
That we were born to win
There's no time for losing

They'll hunt us down
Run us out of town
They'll rough us up
And burn up our luck
Try to steal our souls

'Cause we're walking through walls
Though we're destined to fall
We'll continue to run
From the robots with guns

Now I'm shot full of holes
I'm lead bellied for sure
I'll be shot down
But never locked up
But never locked up

Time, time and money
Belong to the shallow
For the real man, there is only death

You say what's the use then
If we're willing victims
I'll shoot as many as I can
And see how it fits them

They'll hunt us down
Run us out of town
They'll rough us up
And burn up our luck
Try to steal our souls

'Cause we're walking through walls
Though we're destined to fall
We continue to run
From the robots with guns

Now I'm shot full of holes
I'm lead bellied for sure
I'll be shot down
But never locked up

Never locked up
Never locked up
Yeah, never locked up

I'm not a modern man
Nor am I old fashioned
Just a man escaped of time itself
My only folly was my illumination
They'll make me pay for trying to let out their secret

They'll hunt us down
Run us out of town
They'll rough us up
And burn up our luck
Try to steal our souls

Yeah, we're walking through walls
Though we're destined to fall
I'll be shot down, but never locked up
Never locked up
Never locked up
Yeah, never locked up
