ONLY HERE-Frank Migliorelli & The Dirt Nappers

Only here we seem immune to gunshots in the hall

Children huddled down in fear-blood splattered on the wall

Only here we pile backpacks in a high school parking lot

While the cries and screams still ringing through the echoes of the shots

Only here- why- only here?

Only here we turn a blind eye- time and time again

Can’t answer that one question- When’s it ever gonna end

Only here- why- only here?

We only tear down all the places where children learn and play

But the thing we should destroy is the fcking NRA

The lies & the falsehoods, the politicians that they buy-

Thoughts and prayers don’t matter, too many people’ve died.

Only here- why-only here?

We shouldn’t need armed protection where people kneel and pray

But the thing we should destroy is the fcking NRA

The lies & the falsehoods, the politicians that they buy-

Thoughts and prayers don’t matter, too many people’ve died.

Only here- why-only here?

Every life cut down is this county’s bloody stain

Twisted laws and bottom lines and guns for the insane

Only here we seem immune to gunshots in the hall

Children hiding out in fear-their blood splattered on the wall

Only here- why-only here?

America, America, this is our greatest shame

So many lives have been cut short- With endless waves of pain

Only here- Why only here?
