Larry and His Flask - Justice and Justification lyrics

Artist: Larry and His Flask

album: By the Lamplight


With a gun and a knife
Protecting and taking life
Seeking not for pity nor for fame
The night is when you breathe
You can hear you can see
Bringing only what must not what may
Summon the clouds and the rain
Squelch the fire quench the pain
Drown the heart that remembers all that was
Feel the duty but not the shame
Fighting a foe but not a name
Questioning your role
Coming to terms with the toll
Wait for the train
Maybe in vain
Thinking of what it may stand to bring
Build the fire
Oh and stoke it higher
Watch as your hands create then destroy
Break the rules
Go ahead and play the fool
Sever the ties that bind us to what we know
Feel the duty but not the shame
Fighting a foe but not a name
Questioning your role
Coming to terms with the toll
Feel the duty but not the shame
Fighting a foe but not a name
Questioning your role
Coming to terms with the toll
Being at fault but casting the blame
Writing the laws and sharpening the blade
Searching for history's role
Embracing nature's toll
But underneath it all
You'll hear the call
And with a heavy heart
You'll learn to part
