Verse I In between the coats in the closet She held on to that heart shaped locket Staring at a family flawless is optional But it ain't a pretty picture tonight Mom and daddy just wouldn't stop it Fighting at the drop of a faucet Cuts through the walls catastrophic She's caught in the crossfire Pre-Chorus Puts her hands over her ears Starts talking through the tears and She's saying, she's praying. I wish words were like little toy guns No sting, no hurt no one, Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) yeah No smoke, no bullets, no kick from the trigger when you pull it No pain, no damage done (I wish words were like little toy guns) Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) Instrumental Verse II 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 ya----rd Throw away the score card 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 rollin' off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) yeah No smoke, no bullets, no kick from the trigger when you pull it No pain, no damage done (I wish words were like little toy guns) Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) Instrumental II Bridge 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 ru---n, yeah I wish words were like little toy guns No sting, no hurt no one, Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) yeah No smoke, no bullets, no shock from the trigger when you pull it No pain, no damage done (I wish words were like little toy guns) Just a bang bang rollin' off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns)
