It kills a man, and it kills a boy
It kills a child, that's yet to be born
It kills the weak, and it kills the strong
It kills the right, and it kills the wrong

Protect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills
Respect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills, love kills, love kills

Talk to your doctor, talk to your nurse
Call up the President, he'll say it's going to get worse
Talk to your preacher yeah, don't you suffer no fools
Talk to your teacher, you know they give you the rules

Protect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills
Respect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills, love kills, love kills

Solo

You talk about numbers, talk about yours
Looking for answers, why can't you tell me what's yours
Yeah it's killing your heroes yeah, it's killing your friends
It's killing our future, now tell me where does it end.

Protect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills
Respect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills, love kills, love kills

Protect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills
Respect yourselfâ'‚¬¦.love kills, love kills, love kills
