Gun Shy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm walking down the street
While she's at home in bed at peace
Everything I've ever known
This last hope I owe to you
My heart is on the pavement now
You have stomped it in the ground
You were everything I've ever known
And you know
Yea you know
'Cause I'm a little gun shy
Looking out of my corner eye
'Cause I'm afraid of commitment
And she knows
Yea she knows it
My train is here and I am sold
I'll stick with you just like a ghost
Your blood is on my fingertips
The surgeries undo your lips
I think of you and all you do
My eyes are laced from seeing you
But you were gone without a clue
And you know
Yea you know this
'Cause I'm a little gun shy
Looking out of my corner eye
'Cause I'm afraid of commitment
And she knows
Yea she knows it
'Cause I'm afraid of everything
Like love with you and I believe
That I know that I can do
Anything
Yea you know it
Just who the hell do you think you are?
Whoa
'Cause I'm a little gun shy
(She said)
Looking out of my corner eye
'Cause I'm afraid of commitment
And she knows
Yea she knows it
'Cause I'm afraid of everything
Like love with you and I believe
That I know that I can do
Anything
Yea you know it
