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
Fighting at the drop of a faucet
Cuts trough the walls catastrophic
She's caught in the crossfire
Puts her hands over her ears
starts talking through her tears
and she's saying and she's praying
I wish words were like little toy guns
No sting no hurting no one
just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
yeah No smoke no bullets no kick
from the trigger when you pull it
No pain no damage done
And Just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
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 score card
and just turn off all the noise
I wish words were like little toy guns
No sting no hurting no one
just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
yeah No smoke no bullets
no kick from the trigger when you pull it
No pain no damage done
And Just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
Toy gu- u- u- -u uns
Ooh 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
like little toy guns
No sting no hurting no one
just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
yeah No smoke no bullets no kick from the trigger
when you pull it
No pain no damage done
And Just a bang bang rolling off your tongue
Oh like little toy guns
