  Bang Bang - by Laura Shaw

Well you've got all these ambitions, Aspirations are your ammunition.
Big guns and a bigger attitude, well bang bang, you shoot me down.
Brought down by those words. Bullets. Your eyes try to search for mine,
You know your eyes are all that save me. But I look away this time.
With those big guns and bigger words. Let me know when time runs out.

I owe you nothing,
But I'm coming against your defenses.
I owe you nothing,
But I'll pay with my own blood.

Yeah, your every little whisper is time,
Where every second of tonight will rhyme,
I'll follow every word like streetlamps,
Just to make it home alright.

And It's more than common knowledge that you've been dead a while.
Your tongue is riddled with lies, leaving holes you cannot fill.
Leaving this place is what you dream of. Just pack up and be gone,
But running will make you the food, you never want them to feed on.
Don't promise you'll never kill me again; I know that you will.

I owe you nothing,
But I'm coming against your defenses.
I owe you nothing,
But I'll pay with my own blood.

Yeah, your every little whisper is time,
Where every second of tonight will rhyme,
I'll follow every word like streetlamps,
Just to make it home alright.

I owe you nothing,
But I'm coming against your defenses.
I owe you nothing,
But I'll pay with my own blood.

You just want to fall in love tonight.
You just want to run tonight,
You just want to fall in love and run away,
Tonight.

Yeah your every little whisper is time,
Where every second of tonight will rhyme,
I'll follow every word like streetlamps,
Just to make it home alright.

But I owe you nothing..
Bang Bang.
