[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
When all is said and done, were not the only ones (Ah-ah)
~#**************#~
Who look at life this way, thats what the young folks say (Ooh, oh, ooh)
~#**************#~
As if theyd ever change as that were mine to say (Ooh, oh, ooh)
~#**************#~
But every time Id see them makes me wish I had a gun (Ah-ah, ah-ah)

[Outro]
~#**************#~
On an ordinary day, not in an ordinary way
~#**************#~
All at once, the song I heard, no longer would it play
~#**************#~
For anybody or anyone
~#**************#~
That needed comfort from somebody
~#**************#~
Needed comfort from someone
~#**************#~
Who cared to be not like you and unlike me
~#**************#~
And then the voices went away from me
~#**************#~
Somehow, you set the wheels in motion, now haunts our memories
~#**************#~
You were the instrument, you were the one
~#**************#~
How a body, took a body, you gave that boy a gun
~#**************#~
Took our innocence beyond our stares
~#**************#~
Sometimes, the only thing we counted on when no one else was there
~#**************#~
Ah-ah
~#**************#~
Ah-ah
~#**************#~
Ah, ah-ah
~#**************#~
Na-na, na-na, na-na
