If I could kill a word and watch it die |
| [00:13.62] |
I'd poison "never", shoot "goodbye" |
| [00:16.78] |
And beat "regret" when I felt I had the nerve |
| [00:22.12] |
Yeah, I'd pound "fear" into a pile of sand |
| [00:25.03] |
Choke "lonely" out with my bare hands |
| [00:27.88] |
And I'd hang "hate" so that it can't be heard |
| [00:33.45] |
If I could only kill a word |
| [00:44.71] |
Yeah, I'd take "brokenness" out back |
| [00:47.60] |
And break "heartbreak," stand there and laugh |
| [00:50.37] |
Right in its face while shootin' it the bird |
| [00:55.97] |
I'd put "upset" down in its place |
| [00:58.67] |
I'd squeeze the life out of "disgrace" |
| [01:01.56] |
Lay "over" under six cold feet of dirt |
| [01:07.50] |
If I could only kill a word |
| [01:18.23] |
Give me sticks, give me stones |
| [01:20.86] |
Bend my body, break my bones |
| [01:24.33] |
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue |
| [01:29.72] |
Cause you can't unhear, you can't unsay |
| [01:32.66] |
But if were up to me to change |
| [01:35.75] |
I'd turn "lies" and "hate" to "love" and "truth" |
| [01:41.22] |
If I could only kill a word |
| [01:52.53] |
I'd knock out "temptation"'s teeth |
| [01:55.22] |
I'd sever "evil," and let it bleed |
| [01:58.25] |
Light up "wicked" stand and watch it burn |
| [02:03.70] |
I'd take "vice" and I'd take "vile" |
| [02:06.79] |
And tie 'em up there with "hostile" |
| [02:09.58] |
Hang 'em high and leave 'em for the birds |
| [02:15.11] |
If I could only kill a word |
| [02:22.93] |
So give me sticks, give me stones |
| [02:25.93] |
Bend my body, break my bones |
| [02:29.24] |
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue |
| [02:34.69] |
Cause you can't unhear, you can't unsay |
| [02:37.60] |
But if were up to me to change |
| [02:40.59] |
I'd turn "lies" and "hate" to "love" and "truth" |
| [02:46.12] |
If I could only kill a word |
| [02:57.38] |
Yeah, if I could only kill a word |
