There's a boy who's crying in sheer dread
I want to save him
from the gun that's pointed ‘gainst his head
I want to save him

There's a girl who's shivering in the cold
I want to save her
from the knife pressed hard against her throat
I want to save her

I'll take a bullet from a gun
a knife wound in my chest
that's how I want to die
just like a catcher in the rye

Bullet from a gun
knife wound in my chest
that's how I want to die
just like a catcher in the rye

Don't want to wither away
feeling my body in decay
when my time comes

There are kids who suffer everywhere
I want to save them
from the wounds that they can hardly bear
I want to save them

There's a boy who's crying in his sleep
I want to save them
from the angry man he could have been
I want to save them

I'll take a bullet from a gun
a knife wound in my chest
that's how I want to die
just like a catcher in the rye

Bullet from a gun
knife wound in my chest
that's how I want to die
just like a catcher in the rye
