Shot Me Down

Seldom paints these walls
A color representing my best life
This seat cradles a crawling soul
With a nocturnal mind

Cramping hearts and silent cries
The sedatives temporarily help me

I've been all across town only
Hearing my footsteps
I've been spending my nights only
Hearing the laughs and all the things that were
Said in my life

I'm so sick of this impulse
But being alone brings me back to us
No matter what I do
To distract myself in my time
I see you all the time
But you shot me down.

This pen condones my therapy
Scripting all my words she left unheard
Left here with our broken dreams
But still an open mind

Financially trying to save me
Hoping one day you'll come before it ends

I've been all across this home
Only seeing you in every room
I've been spending my nights only
Drowning the laughs and all the things that were
Said in my life

I'm so sick of this impulse
But being alone brings me back to us
No matter what I do
To distract myself in my time
I see you all the time
But you shot me down.

You shot me down
But I pull the bullet out
Cuz I'd rather heal all we had
Then to focus on your abuse.

You shot me down
But I get right back up with bloody hands
Cuz I'd rather forgive you
Just to see us change together.

I'm so sick of this impulse
But being alone brings me back to us
No matter what I do
To distract myself in my time
I see you all the time
But you shot me down.

I'm so sick of this impulse
Being alone brings me back to us
No matter what I do
To distract myself in my time
I see you all the time
But you shot me down.
