Like A Shotgun

(album: The Magic Of Youth - 2011)

There is no argument here to avoid
And I just had a way of living I enjoyed
A selfish way to live but by design
I was so self centered at the time
You were us and I was only me
And you were only waiting patiently
And if I told this to you I'm not sure
That I'm so goddamn insecure

A far more much much greater force
Can knock you back and off of course
Like a shotgun if there ever was one
Looked down the barrel of a loaded gun
And it was not intentional
And I am unconventional
Knocked down with a shotgun blast
I got a feeling that it's gonna last
And if it's happening to me
I'm as happy as someone like me
could be

I'm not so sure but what I said was true
That's no excuse for what I put you through
And it's awful if that's how you feel
I'm awfully sorry for the whole ordeal
The sadness and the sorrow and the pain
I swear to God and promise once again
That I will get around to showing you
So now I'm goddamn going to

A far more much much greater force
Can knock you back and off of course
Like a shotgun if there ever was one
Looked down the barrel of a loaded gun
And it was not intentional
And I am unconventional
Knocked down with a shotgun blast
I got a feeling that it's gonna last
And if it's happening to me
I'm as happy as someone like me
Could be now
Could be now

Like a shotgun if there ever was one
Looked down the barrel of a loaded gun
And it was not intentional
And I am unconventional
Knocked down with a shotgun blast
I got a feeling that it's gonna last
And if it's happening to me
I'm as happy as someone like me
Someone like me could be
Could be now
