lyrics
Many terrified, many feeling weak
some want to equalize with the sound of a piece
Many bodies drop, many tears fall
some people call the cops, some people go to war
and it's always the same when you got your hands up
it's so hard to be brave when the bullets fall down like rain
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
why must it be?
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
we open fire on our family?
Such a shame nobody speaks up
it's hard to be brave when you hear a gun pump
In the backyard, on the battlefield
another broken heart trigger happy with the steel
and all over the world it's getting insane
whether a boy or a girl there's a bullet out with your name
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
why must it be?
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
we open fire on our family?
Nobody move, nobody get hurt
Mommy got a gun 'cause daddy had one
sister got a gun 'cause little brother had some
On the movie screen, in the parking lot
on the front page 'cause everyone know the plot
and all over the world it's such a shame
it's hard to be brave when the bullets call out your name
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
why must it be?
gunmen, gunmen everyones a gunmen
we open fire on our family?
It makes you feel strong, makes you feel good
and you're never wrong 'cause bullets are understood.
