The Gun
I never thought I would feel this way
Even when you’d said you'd leave me someday
Guess I never knew quite what to say
And now my heart is breaking but hey
I always thought I wasn’t worth much
I was never worthy of your trust
Never worthy of your soft touch
Guess I just needed a love crutch
And now I’m lying here tonight
Looking up at the starlight
Wishing I had put up a fight
Cause maybe then I might
I might still have you
I might still hold you in my arms
I might still call you
I might still keep you safe from harm
Little did I know
That I was gonna’ be the one
Wanted to save you
But I was the one behind the gun
I never thought I’d hurt this bad
I never thought I’d be this sad
I never thought I’d be a passing fad
Never thought I’d lose everything I had
Now I’m alone in this place
Just another losing, no name face
Not worthy of you anyway
No way no how in any case
And now I’m lying here tonight
Looking up at the starlight
Wishing I had put up a fight
Cause maybe then I might
I might still have you
I might still hold you in my arms
I might still call you
I might still keep you safe from harm
Little did I know
That I was gonna’ be the one
Wanted to save you
But I was the one behind the gun
I refuse to just lie here tonight
Looking up at the starlight
I am ready to put up a fight
Cause maybe then I might
I might still have you
I might still hold you in my arms
I might still call you
I might still keep you safe from harm
Little did I know
That you were gonna’ be the one
Wanted to save me
Stepped up and took away the gun
