Machine Gun

Tell me off in a letter

Completely ignore me

Getting high off of saying

Why you don't adore me

Baby' please' I'm well versed

In how I might be cursed

I don't need it articulated

Stand in line wasting

All of your time just to hate me

Every dime gone to ways

You can find that might bait me

And drag me down' sight set proudly

Bring me to the ground see

You love to be somebody's enemy

Maybe nobody loved you when you were young

Maybe' boy' when you cry' nobody ever comes

Will you try it once

Give up the machine gun

Machine gun

Locked and loaded

You're practically floating away now

In your fortress you feel like

You're more or less safe now

But let me say I don't mean harm

Oh' but' baby' you'd be charming if you'd come undone

Get back where you started from

Maybe nobody loved you when you were young

Maybe' boy' when you cry' nobody ever comes

Will you try it once

Give up the machine gun

Machine gun

Never mind how you've rationed your time

And the battle is underway

Maybe times are gonna change

Don't just hide in the silence behind

What you've really been trying to say

What a skill' baby' aiming to kill me

With words you don't mean

Maybe nobody loved you when you were young

Maybe' boy' when you cry' nobody ever comes

Will you try it once

Give up the machine gun

Will you try it once

Give up the machine gun

Will you try it once

Give up the machine gun

Machine gun
