Larry and His Flask Justice and Justification Lyrics Larry And His Flask lyrics

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
