Ricochet

Us against the world
Became us against ourselves
You'd get a little hungry
I'd pull something off the shelf
Storebought wasn't good enough
And I could never tell
Honey it was hard to recognize

I'd get a little restless
And so I'd start up a fight
But lie in the same bed with you
Each and every night
Darkness gets the best of me
So I told you I might
Try to recognize, yeah I would try

Moss and rolling stone
Wanna go our separate ways
Space growing between us
Almost every single day
You know I hate to see you
All worked up into a state
But the damage is already done

Ahhh ahhh

Be careful where you run
My heart's a loaded gun
Two shots can come from one
My love ricochets
Ricochets
Ricochets

My heart was like a window
Until you broke the glass
Wasted all that water
In search of greener grass
You said we should get comfortable
Lying on our backs
Unwind as our minds float away

Mama always taught me
Never paint anything black
So I turned into a shadow
And slipped right through the cracks
Kicked and screamed as they dragged me
Cause I just won't go back
To the person I was in the past

Standing here beside each other
No one says a word
We won't speak our truth
So that we won't be misheard
A homicide within our heads
It all feels so absurd
Like a gun pointing back at ourselves

Ahhh ahhh

Be careful where you run
My heart's a loaded gun
Two shots can come from one
My love ricochets
Ricochets

So have a little patience
Baby we can make it
Finger off the trigger
We are so much bigger than this
Prison we've been living in
Back to back no skin to skin
Face the same direction darling
That's the best protection from the
Ricochet
