One Shot Down
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.
No one's there but I'm not alone
My skin's no longer my own
I'm a parasite host, merely a ghost
of who I used to be
There's a killer running free
They say he looks just like me
Voice in my head, I was misled
By a stranger with my face
Now I got nowhere to run
I got nowhere to hide
Someone disguised as me
Committed double homicide but it's to late
They won't stop till they have someone to blame
One Shot Down, Two Shot Down
A pistol that belonged to my daddy
One Shot Down, Two Shot Down
A life sentence for my conscience
With no chance of parole
Vigilantes at my door
They show no remorse
The gallows' set, the town is met
for a hanging in the square
It's a fate that's worse than death
Choking on every breath
There's no escape, accept my fate
An eye for an eye
But its too late for me to start to have regrets today
One Shot Down, Two Shot Down
A pistol that belonged to my daddy
One Shot Down, Two Shot Down
Personality fractured in two
One Shot Down, Two Shot Down
They got what they deserved
Now they're laying in the dirt
