Lyrics
No Gun
Music:j.craib / c.ryan
Lyrics: c.ryan
we walked through hell together holding hands
so tight
and so afraid of the night
children with secrets so hard to understand
but no gun
ever knew that it hurt anyone
hold on
hold on
we drink to foil the ghost who comes to haunt our dreams
now I will watch you sleeping
now I will watch you sleeping
take time out
let go of
all that will not become you
now I will watch you sleeping
now I will watch you sleeping
hold on
hold on
oh my brother don't you cry
oh my sister don't you cry
we walked through hell together holding hands
so tight
and so afraid of the night
we whispered secrets and tried to understand
but no gun
ever knew that it hurt anyone
