If I could
I'd kill a word and watch it die
I'd poison it, shoot goodbye
And beat regret when I felt I had to die
I'd pound fear into a pile of sand
Choke a lonely app with my bare hands
I'd hang hay so that it can't be heard
If I could only
Kill a word
Yeah, I'd take brokenness out back
Break hot brakes, stand there and laugh
Right in its face by shooting it to birth
I'd put upset down in its place
I'd squeeze the life out of disgrace
Stay over under six cold feet of it
If I could only
Kill a word
Give me sticks, give me stones
Break my body, break my bone
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue
Cause you can't unheal, you can't unsay
But I bet we're up to me to change
I turn lies and hate to love the truth
If I could only
Kill a word
Yeah, I'd knock out temptation's teeth
I'd sever evil, let it bleed
Light up where it can't stand and watch it burn
I'd take vials, I'd take vials
Tie them up there with high style
Hang them high, leave them for the birds
If I could only
If I could only
Kill a word
Give me sticks, give me stones
Break my body, break my bones
Use staff and rod to turn me black and blue
Cause you can't unheal, you can't unsay
But I bet we're up to me to change
I turn lies and hate to love the truth
If I could only
Kill a word
If I could only
Kill a word

If I could only
If I could only
Kill a word
