lyrics

It comes as no surprise, I know you play pretend.
You're more natural with a knife than brandishing a friend

IT'S GETTING WORSE BECAUSE I'M SHOOTING FIRST.

There's a trigger in your eyes and a hammer in your heart.
You're loaded up with lies that'll tear us both apart.

I'VE HIT THE DIRT, BECAUSE I'M SHOOTING FIRST

If I am going down you can bet you're coming with me
Face first onto the ground
Just as bloody, just as guilty
But it could be worse; you could be shooting first.

You're wishing me the best but praying for the worst.
I'm aiming at your chest & squeezing till hit hurts.

I'VE HIT THE DIRT
IT'S SUCH A CURSE
IT'S GETTING WORSE BECAUSE I'M SHOOTING FIRST.
