Triggers pulled insensibly Irresponsibly so selfishly All for the sake of our pride Gun wounds and open scars Stench of blood from afar Families are left torn apart No this cannot go on Before our future's all gone Something's gotta give somehow Chorus: Let the children out and play Safe from harm, angels guard them I pray May the world learn right from wrong, wrong from right On my knees I pray To the heavens I pray Verse: Words unaccounted for Promises all out the door Freedom now weighted in wars Echoes of broken hearts Seething silence in the dark Where oh when the end begins Right from the heart where love is found Chorus: Let the children out and play Safe from harm, angels guard them I pray May the world learn right from wrong, wrong from right On my knees I pray To the heavens I pray Bridge: Step by step we push on together Hand in hand we'll break this war One by one we'll stitch up the broken Pieces of peace now made whole One by one we'll stitch up the broken Pieces of peace now made whole Chorus: Let the children out and play Safe from harm, angels guard them I pray May the world learn right from wrong, wrong from right On my knees I pray To the heavens I pray I Pray...
