Sometimes a second lasts forever
Feels like a pendulum is just hangin' there now
The last word you said floats like a feather
And all at once I realize I ain't got a prayer now

Get down to it
Spare me the rest
Never mind the small talk
I know what's coming next

You got me waitin' on a bullet
Just like a bird on a wire
We both know the outcome
Now that the shot has been fired
And I know there's nothin' I can change
To change the way you feel
So I'm just waitin' on a bullet
And my time's standin' still

Is that what you call a fair warnin'
To wear you lipstick in a brighter shade now
When you put it on this morning
You loaded up that chamber with the choice you made

Get down to it
Say it's for the best
Tell me that you're sorry
And get it off your chest

You've got me waitin' on a bullet
Just like a bird on a wire
We both know the outcome
Now that the shot has been fired
And I know there's nothin' I can change
To change the way you feel
I'm just waitin' on a bullet
And my time's standin' still

Your lips are a smokin' gun
And they're movin' in slow motion

Get down to it
Say you're movin' on
Get up and start walkin'
Get up and get gone

Can't take this waitin' on a bullet
Just like a bird on a wire
We both know the outcome
Now that the shot has been fired
And I know there's nothin' I can change
To change the way you feel
I'm just waitin' on a bullet
And my time's standin' still

I'm just Waitin' on a bullet
I'm just a bird on a wire
We both know the outcome
Now that the shot has been fired
And I know there's nothin' I can change
To change the way you feel
I'm just waitin' on a bullet
And my time's standin' still
And my time's standin' still

I'm just waitin' on a bullet
I'm just waitin' on a bullet
