In between the coats in the closet
She held on to that heart shaped locket
Staring at a family flawless
But it ain't a pretty picture tonight
Mom and daddy just won't stop it
Fightin' at the drop of the faucet
Cuts through the Walls, catastrophic
She's caught in the crossfire
Puts her hands over her ears
Starts talking through the tears
She's saying, she's praying.
I wish words were like little toy guns
No sting, no hurt no one
Just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
Yeah yeah
No smoke, no bullets
No kick from the trigger when you pull it
No pain and no damage done
And just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
I wish words were like little toy guns
Wish there was a white flag waving
Or that they were both just faking
And it was just a game they were playing
Like shoot-'em-up cowboys
Leave the plastic pistols in the front yard
Throw away the scorecard
And just turn off all the noise
I wish words were like little toy guns
No sting, no hurt no one
Just a bang, bang rolling off your tongue
Yeah yeah
No smoke, no bullets
No kick from the trigger when you pull it
No pain and no damage done
And just a bang, bang rolling off your tongue
I wish words were like little toy guns
I wish they didn't cut like a knife
I wish they didn't break you inside
I wish they didn't bang, bang
Make you wanna run...
Yeah yeah
Like little toy guns
No sting, no hurting no one
Just a bang, bang rolling off your tongue
Yeah yeah
No smoke, no bullets
No shot from the trigger when you pull it
No Pain and no damage done
And just a bang, bang rolling off your tongue
I wish words were like little toy guns
