[Verse 1]
Ab Fm
Safety is a myth
Cm Eb
Don't exist in a society where gunshots meet school bells
Ab Fm
Every passing day
Cm7 Cm
I hope and pray that there's a way to put an end to this new hell
[Pre-Chorus]
Ab Fm
Your fingers are green
N.C
And there's blood on the scene
Cm7 Eb
Do you feel bad, do you feel bad, do you feel bad?
Ab Fm
The candles are lit
N.C
And we're not gonna quit
Cm Eb
Do you feel bad enough to do something?
[Chorus]

How many is enough?

How many gone, how many cuffed?
Ab F
How many incidents of violence till you're awake?

How many does it take?

How many smiles can you break?

How many minutes of this silence till you're awake?

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Repeat a filthy lie, tell us why this could never be the fault of a weapon

Tell it to the ones who lost a son, who lost a daughter, in a damn millisecond

Your fingers are green
