Trouble in little town
People all gathered 'round
Abandoned bag on a step
This is what happened next
I was only trying to hear
what the teacher said
Then I heard a gunshot ringing
in my head
Can see it on the evening news
there's twenty-three dead
In two-by-twos
with our shirts stained red
We walk these streets of Heaven
We walk these streets
of Heaven now
It's hard to get through the days
Knowing they're milеs away
Knowing what could've been
I look on down and I see
My brother on the stand
trying to makе a case
My mother in the hallway
with tears upon her face
The lawyers say
these cruel machines
they keep us safe
But you and me
we know the price to pay
As we walk these streets of Heaven
Walk these streets of Heaven
It's to we walk these streets
of Heaven
Another shot wasted life
Another friend to walk beside
I know it hurts
but wipe your eyes
And we'll sing
until the old men cry
It's just the way it is
I don't know why
It's just the way it is
I don't know why
It's just the way it is
I don't know why
We're just a bunch of kids
we didn't have to die
As we walk these streets of heaven
We walk these streets of heaven
We walk these streets of heaven
We walk these streets
of heaven now
