C                                              F 
All these inanimate places feel like they're changing 
C                                                        G
The kids all lined up on the wall like they're ready to die 
C                                                     F
These arms are sending it's like they just rearrange them 
C                                                       G 
We were caged up like animals, questioned and ready to cry
C                                                F 
Cause I was just 13 when I got my first take of danger 
  C                                                     G 
Standing by the church, I had a bottle and a pen in my hand 
           C                                                          Am
Oh I said "Father, I'm sorry. I just don't know what to do with this anger"
        Dm                                                     G
This behavior is correctable, I know this wasn't part of your plan
            C                                         F
But little fucks like us, we were always receiving instruction 
              C                                                         G
And you could burn off our clothes, you could wash out the ink and the dye
              C                                                          F
But you can't look me in the eye and say you don't feel like a little destruction 
         Am                       G                         C
And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to die
         Am                       G                         C
And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to die


C                                               F
All these days just seem like they're getting longer
C                                                G 
The view from our room is a gloomy and overcast grey
    C                                             F
The weakness we left behind seems to be getting stronger
                C                                                         G
I swear there's something in the air, and I don't know what anyone could say
      C                                        F 
Cause I saw the news this morning, there was another
C                                                 G 
Boy by the side of the road, he had a gun in his hand 
           C                                                      Am
I thought "What could you say to make it ever make sense to his mother?"
     Dm                                                       G
Oh ma'am, he was excitable, we were just trying to make him a man 
C                                                           F
But the day will come when it falls like a cheap house of plastic
        C                                                          G
And the cards that were dealt, will be tossed like a storm in the sky
             C                                              F
Cause you can only lie so long before you get something drastic
         Am                       G                         C 
And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to die
         Am                       G                         C
And the kids are lined up on the wall and they're ready to die
