Little Toy Guns lyrics

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
