I'm the one with the gun?
You used that as an analogy but still
I'm scared to be the one with the gun
Cause he had a gun in his hand once
Yeah it was loaded
You know this
Gun analogy
I'm scared of guns
Don't want to pull the trigger
Not on you
Not on anyone
Not on myself

Like he did
You get it?
He knew what he was doing
He knew it was loaded
To him it wasn't just a lifeless analogy
Cause it came true
Jumped right off the page and into his hand
Into his head

Every time life gets hard for someone I'm afraid
Afraid they will end up like him
I don't want to go through that again
Never again
I can't
I just can't
I'm scared
Please don't make me go through that again
