lyrics

When we were younger (so much younger still)
We used to swallow every single pill
That we could find
Hoping we would die.
And every punk boy with a gun
Put it up in the air and fire off a round
'Cause what goes up it must come down
I'm a coward at the heart, babe.
Look at this life that I've found.

When you were younger and you lived on a farm
Your daddy hit you but he meant no harm.
Just meant to teach you a lesson that you'd never forget.
What lesson was that?
You can't remember what that lesson was,
But you got a scar where you should have love.

Every knife in the back of my spine,
Every woman on my shoulder crying reminds me of you.
Of how I met you when your face was fat.
I'm a coward at the heart babe.
There is no going back.

When I am older I will carry a gun
I want to fight and I want to have fun
but I don't want to lose.
Neither do you.
Every punk boy who hears this song,
I implore then to sing along, 'cause I know they
I know that they want a gun too.
I'm a coward at the heart, babe.
This is the life that I choose.
