Pretty lightweight messes, you're so full of surface
Got a baby picture hanging under mine
Gotta hand it to you, took the biggest prize
With the least resistance out from under me
It's so very tired of hearing funny stories
Of your trendy habits and your phony smile
You're so very charming, you're so very witty
You're so * vacant, I can see right through
I'll shoot you down in your silver plate bed
I'll cut you down in your cozy, creepy bars
I'll bring you down from your lousy, lofty heights
I'll shoot you down
If you wound up homeless, if you turned up strong
That wouldn't even help the way I feel right now
Dream of borrowed cars, smashing pretty homes
With all you lousy people
Lying drunk inside
I'll shoot you down in your silver plate beds
I'll cut you down in your cozy, creepy bars
I'll bring you down from your lousy, lofty heights
I'll shoot you down
If I had it in me to even touch you
I'd be alone before I raise my hand
If I could drop you, then you could thrill me
Why don't you kill me?
How'd it get so dark?
How'd it get so dark?
Why do I keep staying awake?
I'll shoot you down
I'll shoot you down
I'll shoot you down
I'll shoot you down
I'll shoot you down
I'll shoot you down
