Intro
x4
Verse
Bang Bang go the coffin nails
Like a breath exhaled and gone forever
Seems like just yesterday
How did I miss the red flags
Raised? Think back to days we laughed
We braved these bitter storms together
Brought to his knees he cried,
But on his feet he died
Pre-chorus
What God could damn a har-eart?
And what God drove us apa-hart (Apart)?
N/C
What God co-hould (Could)
Chorus
Make it stop, let this end
Eighteen years pushed to the ledge.
Its come this, a weightless step
On the way down singing
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Post-Chorus: x2
Verse
Bang bang from the closet walls
The schoolhouse halls, the shotguns loaded
Push me and Ill push back
Im done asking, I demand
From a nation under God
I feel its love like a cattle prod
Im born free but still they hate
Im born me, no, I cant change
Pre-chorus
Its always darkest just before the dawn
So stay awake with me
N/C
LETS PROVE THEM WRONG
Chorus
Make it stop, let this end
Eighteen years pushed to the ledge.
Its come this, a weightless step
On the way down singing
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Bridge
The cold river washed him away
But how could we forget
The gatherings hold candles
But not their tongues
And too much blood has flown from the wrists
Of the children shamed for those they chose to kiss
Who will rise to stop the blood?
Were counting for, insisting on
A different beat, yeah, a brand new song-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
A brand new song-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Chorus
Make it stop, make this end
This life chose me, I'm not lost in sin.
And proud I stand of who I am
I plan to go on living!
Make it stop, make this end
All these years pushed to the ledge.
And proud I stand of who I am
I plan to go on living!
