LYRICS

If I could buy a gun
I'm gonna start a war
Gonna pull the trigger, watch them fall
If I could have a knife
I'm bound to take a life
Bound to take this out on anyone
If I could dig a hole
Then I would climb inside
Wait until the rain would wash me out
If I could have the wheel
The pedal to the floor
Send the tires screaming off the road we fall
  CHORUS:  Da da da
  Take me away from all this pain inside, Inside
If I could have a lighter
I'd like to start a fire
Dancing as the mountains crumble down
So give me a grenade
I'll blow it all away
Promise that you won't feel a thing at all
  CHORUS:  Da da da
  Take me away from all this pain inside
Picking up the gun, staring up the war
No one's gonna laugh at me no more
   BRIDGE
   You can't run, you can't hide, you won't catch me
   No, you won't catch me alive
   Look, it's me laughing now
   Tell me who will be laughing while you cry out
  CHORUS: Not a thing in the world that matters...
