It only took one word from you
And it shot through me like a bullet
If your bulls eye was the center of my heart
Then your trigger finger was on target when you pulled it.
I couldn’t close my eyes or look away
I watched it as it pierced through my chest
It was something I had to see to believe
And the pain made me lose my breath.
Then I felt the distress inside my body
As it tore through everything keeping my alive
My whole world stood still as I arched my back
I felt it rip out of me through the other side.
I am not sure where the bullet landed
But I know my body hit the ground
I laid there twitching in a pool of my own blood
My vision distorted and I felt everything crash down.
Your footsteps faded as you left the room
You left me there to drowned in pain
I always said I would die for you
But I never meant it this way.
You closed the door, I gave up on my life
It was a choice I didn’t make
I had given everything to you
And you promised to keep me safe.
I guess I was blinded by the love I felt
Maybe I should have been more prepared
But all the lessons I have learned from this don’t matter
Everything has ended and my life is no longer there.
I hope when someone finds my body
They will take time to wonder why
It was the only questions running through my head
As I saw my life flash by.
I hope they close my eye lids
Wipe the tears of blood from off my cheeks
Whisper a soft prayer up to heaven
My last rights of passage so I may peacefully sleep.
And it shot through me like a bullet
If your bulls eye was the center of my heart
Then your trigger finger was on target when you pulled it.
I couldn’t close my eyes or look away
I watched it as it pierced through my chest
It was something I had to see to believe
And the pain made me lose my breath.
Then I felt the distress inside my body
As it tore through everything keeping my alive
My whole world stood still as I arched my back
I felt it rip out of me through the other side.
I am not sure where the bullet landed
But I know my body hit the ground
I laid there twitching in a pool of my own blood
My vision distorted and I felt everything crash down.
