OFFSPRING

- Hammerhead Lyrics

I am the one, camouflage and guns
Risk my life to keep my people from harm
Authority vested in me
I sacrifice with my brothers in arms

Through this doorway
What?s on the other side
Never knowing
Exactly what I?ll find

Locked and loaded
Voices screaming, let?s go
Come on do it, here we go

I'll take a life, that others may live
Oh, that?s just the way it goes
I'll shut my eyes, it hammers in my head
Where it?ll end nobody knows

I'll take a life, ten others may live
Oh, that?s just the way it goes
It?s playing over and over in my head
Where it?ll end nobody knows

Stay the course, reasonable force
I believe I serve a greater good
Smoke and dust, enemies are crushed
Nothing left, where a man once stood

Through this doorway
What?s on the other side
Never knowing
Exactly what I?ll find

Locked and loaded
Voices screaming, let?s go
But I?m just doing what I?m told

I'll take a life, that others may live
Oh, that?s just the way it goes
I'll shut my eyes, it hammers in my head
Where it?ll end nobody knows

I'll take this life, ten others may live
Oh, that?s just the way it goes
It?s playing over and over in my head
Where it begins and where it?ll end nobody knows

Hey go

Bang, bang, it hammers in my head
Bang, bang, it hammers in my head
Bang, bang, it hammers in my head
In my head, in my head

Yeah, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil for Thou art with me
Locked and loaded gonna find my truth
Now I?m busting through, all hell breaks loose

And you can all hide behind your desks now
And you can cry, ?Teacher, come help me?
Through you all, my aim is true

My
My aim is true
My aim is true
