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 (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) 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 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 Rolling 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) And just a bang bang rolling off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) Oh 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 hurt no one, just a bang bang Rolling off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) Yeah, no smoke, no bullets No shot from the trigger when you pull it, no pain, no damage done (I wish words were like little toy guns) And just a bang bang rolling off your tongue (I wish words were like little toy guns) Oh like little toy guns
