45 - Live Acoustic from Kansas City

Tony Battaglia, Brent Smith

Send away for a priceless gift
One not subtle, one not on the list
And,  send away for a perfect world
One not simply so absurd
In these times of doing what you're told
Keep these feelings, no one knows

Whatever happened to the young man's heart?
Well it's swallowed by pain
As he slowly fell apart

And I'm starin' down the barrel of a 45
Swimmin' through the ashes of another life
There's no real reason to accept
The way things have changed
Starin' down the barrel of a 45

Send a message to the unborn child
To keep your eyes open, for a while
In a box high up on the shelf
Left for you, no one else
There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
That's wrapped in guilt, and sealed up tight

So whatever happened to the
Young man's heart? It's swallowed by pain
As he slowly fell apart

And I'm starin' down the barrel of a 45
I'm swimmin' through the ashes
Of another life no real reason to accept the
Way things have changed
Starin' down the barrel of a 45

'Cuz everyone's pointing their fingers
And they're always condemning me
'Cuz there ain't nobody that
Knows what I believe what I believe

And I'm starin' down the barrel of a 45
And I'm swimmin' through the
Ashes of another life
'Cuz there is no real reason to
Accept the way things have changed
Starin' down down a 45
I'm starin', I'm starin', I'm starin
Down a 45 starin', starin', starin', starin'
'Cuz I'm starin, I'm starin'
I'm starin' down a 45
Starin', starin', starin', starin'

'Cuz I'm starin' down a 45
'Cuz I'm starin' down a 45
But I'm still alive but I'm still alive
