SIX BULLETS

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

City asleep behind the curtain rain

Your smoke hangs low over the sill

I count the hours like I count the pain

Two more streets before we're still

Moon got tired of watching us pretend

Silver on the puddles where you stood

I traced my finger through the window end

Wondering who you really were and should be

Pre-Chorus

Don't call it love

Don't call it fate

Six little things I learned to hate

Chorus

Six bullets for the lies you told me

Six bullets and a dress turned red

Rain washes every mark you sold me

Moon keeps the story in my head

Six bullets

Six bullets

Verse 2

Cigarette burns down to nothing left

I keep the taste of you on my tongue

Every whisper left me so bereft

Every promise cut me being stung

I wore your name like a second skin

Sewn with thread that never held

Now I wear the night and what I've been

And the coldness that I finally felt

Pre-Chorus

Don't call it love

Don't call it fate

Six little things I learned to hate

Chorus

Six bullets for the lies you told me

Six bullets and a dress turned red

Rain washes every mark you sold me

Moon keeps the story in my head

Six bullets

Six bullets

Bridge

Smoke curls like a question in the air

No answer waiting at the door

Blood and wet grass and tangled hair

None of it means anything no more

I made a promise to the ground

To the thunder and the quiet street

That whatever of you they ever found

Would never make my own heart beat

Chorus

Six bullets for the lies you told me

Six bullets and a dress turned red

Rain washes every mark you sold me

Moon keeps the story in my head

Six bullets

Six bullets

Outro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Six bullets
