This song is told from Sophia's perspective, and it is about her hatred for violence and her disapproval of her mother using violence to solve all of her problems.
Lyrics[]
You can't shoot a gun and run
To solve all of your problems
Cuz after all when it's all done
You'll just end up with more of 'em
You were flying
Now you're falling
Crashing headfirst on the concrete
You can't always get what you want
Or make the people who you secretly fear
Disappear
Come over here
You were flying
Now you're falling
Crashing headfirst on the concrete
Only because
You can't just
Draw back and admit defeat
