04. Ammunition

The Beautiful Letdown
by Switchfoot



 

 

Blame it on what you've been though
Blame it on what you're into
Blame it on your religions
Blame it on politicians

We've been blowing up
We're the issue
It's our condition

We've been blowing up
We're the issue
Our detonation

CHORUS
We've been blowing up
We're the issue
We're ammunition
We're ammunition
We're ammunition
We are the fuse and ammunition.

I have no generation
Show me my motivation
One world one desperation
One hope and one salvation

CHORUS

Look what a mess we've made of love
Look what a mess we've made,
We've got ourselves to blame
Look what a bomb we've made of love.

CHORUS

Written by Jonathan Foreman. ©2003 Meadowgreen Music Company / Sugar Pete Songs (ASCAP)

Behind the Song:
"Einstein said, “Without belief in the inner harmony of the world there would be no science.” Maybe. I say without the dissonance of our modern age there would be no rock and roll. There lies the tension: between the harmony and the dissonance. We’re the problem, we’re the issue. I can pin the blame on whomever I want but the mirror still points my direction. This is a tune that really feels great to play live: step on a distortion pedal and scream about the dissonance." - Jon Foreman (Switchfoot)
