    BANG! BANG! BANG!
    No one flinches any more
    Sounds as familiar as a knock on the door
    When expecting some body
    Walk outside to see a body
    Chalked in outline and a mother grieving and crying
    "Why my son!? He was innocent!"
    The statement only hold true because he didn't pull the trigger as fast as the man aiming at him...

    BANG! BANG!
    Another casualty of war
    Not a soldier but a 4 yr old
    Victim of a war he never signed up for
    Stepped into a battle the second he walked out his door
    Laying in his pool of blood in his front yard
    Yes, he took the slugs but his parents got the scars
    Cuz there's nothing worse
    Than seeing your child laying in a hearse
    With closed eyes
    And rather be dead then have to say your final goodbye

    BANG!
    I wrote your name on the bullet
    So they knew you were the last thing going through my mind when I pulled it
    Don't be shocked I told you id do it
    When you walked away I told you I couldn't go through it
    This life with out you isn't worth livng
    When you walked away my words you weren't believing
    Frankly I don't know why
    I never gaved you a reason to believe id lie
    Never gave you a reason to leave me
    When you left you took the best of me
    So tell me wat was left of me?
    Nothing worth keeping
    And definately nothing worth grieving...
