Rifle

A rifle is a long-barrelled firearm designed for accurate shooting, with a barrel that has a helical pattern of grooves (rifling) cut into the bore wall. In keeping with their focus on accuracy, rifles are typically designed to be held with both hands and braced firmly against the shooter's shoulder via a buttstock for stability during shooting. Rifles are used extensively in warfare, self defense, law enforcement, crime (most notably assassinations), hunting, and shooting sports.

See all the little ones running and hiding
Because they're afraid of the sound of the fighting
No one around here really wants to know
What's really waiting out there in the forest
Hearing the voices all lifted in chorus
Lions and tigers and bears and an old scarecrow

Childhood's end, childhood's end

The drums in the dark and bells that are ringing
That's not a lullaby that they are singing
It's just a dirge for your imaginary friend
The sky is the color of blood in the morning
Bundle your blanket that's the only warning
That the future is going to send

Childhood's end, childhood's end

Innocence is a lie
You want to sleep in a cradle in the sky
You need a grownup to take you by the hand
You're a stranger in Toyland

Hope is the light your childhood relies on
Betrayal is the hill that your childhood dies on
Buried alongside imaginary friends
Lions and tigers and bears left behind you
With a trail of crumbs they still won't find you
This is how your childhood ends

Childhood's end, childhood's end, childhood's end
