Lyrics

I Am Shotgun

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 feel something creeping up my spine, going straight to my head

My defenses breaking, walls are shaking, I am under attack

Slowly but surely it gets a hold of me

It's eating me alive

Before long, I know I'm gonna crack

And watch it take its place in the driver's seat and I am

Shotgun, I'm just a ride-along

Destination unknown

I'm riding shotgun

Me and the other one

Going downhill from here on

These days it feels like it's impossible to even get out of bed

It's like I know which buttons to push but my thoughts are no longer my own

Slowly but surely it gets a hold of me

It's eating me alive

Before long, I know I'm gonna crack

And watch it take its place in the driver's seat and I am

Shotgun, I'm just a ride-along

Destination unknown

I'm riding shotgun

Me and the other one

Going downhill from here on

It's a tricky situation

My frustration

I no longer feel like myself

Dead man driving

Dead man driving

My defenses breaking, walls are shaking, I am under attack

Dead man driving

Dead man driving

Dead man driving

Dead man driving

Am I losing my mind?

Am I losing my mind?

Losing my mind?
