Your gun cost me my father Your gun cost me my wife Your gun cost me my brother Your gun cost me my life Your gun cost me my uncle Your gun cost me my niece Your gun cost me my nephew Your gun cost me my peace Your gun cost me my daughter Your gun cost me my son Your gun took everything from me But you've still got your gun
Your gun cost me my parents Your gun cost me my friend Your gun cost me my sister Your gun cost me my children Your gun cost me my Country Your gun cost me my home Your gun cost me my mother You gun cost me all I know Your gun cost me my whole world Your gun cost me everyone Your gun took everything from me But you've still got your gun
Your gun cost me my office Your gun cost me my boss Your gun cost me my synagogue Your gun cost me my mosque Your gun cost me my high school Your gun cost me my church Your took away all the light and left only the hurt Sometimes I can’t believe that these crimes can still be done Your gun takes everything from us, but you’ve still got your fucking gun
