Like A Gunshot
(WARNING: SWEARING/CUSSING)
It hit me like a gunshot
You gave it all you got
While I did not
I didn't really give a damn
It didn't hurt at all
But you're watching me fall
Is a pain you would call
Weakness, ready to scram
Falling from the greatest height
Trying to drown your laughter in might
Your friends are looking confused, alright
A river of feeling breaking a dam
It hit me like a gunshot
You gave it all you got
Now I'll give it a shot
Your love was a freaking scam
