The Bullet

Tired of the bullet you laid out your life In selections of photographs hung up to dry Shoot through the middle and gather your points By protecting yourself from another bad choice No one will care if you put out that light You built an army but they would not fight So speechless and void you're just a memory Stuck in the mirror with no exit strategy You should move on make a life of your own Get happily married and live in a home But you can't sit still and your certain it's true There's just too many them and just not enough you You're a rat in a cage you're a bull in a china shop Took center stage for the world just to spit you up I say let's shoot back Heaven above us and Hell just behind Nobody knows it I'm just one of a million kinds So sing if your sorry for all you see Sing if you're just the same as me Looking back now there's no way I would do Anything different or anything new You and me both were the bullet within We're just playing a game that nobody can win So I'll burn all my promises, never agree To become what I hate and then hate what I see I'm as empty as all of the air that I breathe And I'm hollowed and flawed but at least I still bleed Help me remember that once you were here Living without you it's just one of a million fears So I'll keep on singing this lullabye Darling how deep does the bullet lie How deep does the bullet lie How deep does the bullet lie How deep does the bullet lie How deep does the bullet lie
