Your word and my word and your word is
Tomorrow, today and yesterday
But it's a necessary evil
And you will find your way there
Your feelings and mine are all holy and
You give me an inner sanctity
You feel the same way that I do for you, about her
Your word and my word and her word is
Yesterday, today and tomorrow
And twilight gives me an inner sanctity
And you're feeling
And you're hungry for her
And you don't understand it
But you know you haven't planned it
Your feelings and mine are all lonely
And dawn comes, you're there lying with me
And you reach out to touch me
But I am in the twilight
Your feelings and mine are all holy but
You know, and I know it's untrue because
When day dawns, you're there lying with me
And the dawn can fly away
And you know I love you, but you know that
There's nothing you can do about it
Because you love her
And you still love me
If I could be her...
But I'm not her and she's not me
And you're somewhere different
On a different planet
And you still want it
The inner sanctity
And it's an evil
But the evil is necessary, yeah
And you're still hungry for her
And you still want her loving
But she doesn't love you, oh yeah...

I was so in love with you
You rarely see a love that’s true
Wasn’t that enough for you
Wasn’t that enough for you

I would climb a mountain
I wouldn’t want to see you fall
Rock climb for you
And give you a reason for it all

You kept on thinking
You were the only one
Too busy thinking
Love is a gun

Hit me like a slow bullet
Like a slow bullet
It took me some time to realise it

You kept on thinking
You were the only one
Too busy thinking
Love is a gun

I know the end before
The story’s been told
It’s not that complicated
But you’re gonna need a bulletproof soul

You kept on thinking
You were the only one
Too busy thinking
Love is a gun

I know the end before
The story’s been told
It’s not that complicated
But you’re gonna need a bulletproof soul

You were trigger happy baby
You never warned me let me free
It’s not that complicated
But you’re going to need a bulletproof soul
Think you got it but you got all the trouble you need
I came in like a lamb
But I intend to leave like a lion

It hit me like a slow bullet
It hit me like a slow bullet

He told me sweet lies of sweet loves
Heavy with the burden of the truth
And he spoke of his dreams
Broken by the burden
Broken by the burden of his youth

Fourteen years he said
I couldn’t look into the sun
She saw him laying at the end of my gun
Hungry for life
And thirsty for the distant river
I remember his hands

And the way the mountains looked
The light shot diamonds from his eyes
Hungry for life
And thirsty for the distant river

Like the scar of age
Written all over my face
The war is still raging inside of me
I still feel the chill
As I reveal my shame to you
I wear it like a tattoo
I wear it like a tattoo
I wear it like a tattoo
