[Verse 1]
Look out ahead
See danger come
I want a pistol
I want a gun
I'm scared, baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Give me the gun
[Chorus]
Baby, baby, ain't it true?
I'm immortal when I'm with you
But I want a pistol in my hand
I wanna go to a different land
[Verse 2]
I met a man
He told me straight

Too many guns
All trying to do something
No one else has done
[Chorus]
Baby, baby, ain't it true?
I'm immortal when I'm with you
But I want a pistol in my hand
I wanna go to a different land
[Bridge]
Sometimes it rains so hard
And I feel the hurt
In my heart
Feels like the end of the world
And I see the children
As sharp as knives
And I see the children
Dead-end lives
Beautiful people
Beautiful girls
I just feel like
It's the end of the world
[Verse 3]
I walk on concrete
I walk on sand
But I can't find
A safe place to stand
I'm scared, baby
I wanna run
This world's crazy
Give me the gun
[Chorus]
Baby, baby, ain't it true?
I'm immortal when I'm with you
But I want a pistol in my hand
I wanna go to a different land
