[Verse 1]
If love is a gun
Then we keep shooting down the ones who’ve done nothing wrong

Lover you’re a killer
No need for a sinner
You shoot it up, the bleeding heart
That doesn’t deserve it
The one that thinks they need it
You’re so fucked up
You’re so messed up
Don’t you know what it’s like to be in the spotlight
Of a sharpened knife
Of your words every night
It’s not right

[Chorus 1]
And if love is a gun
Then we keep shooting down the ones who’ve done nothing wrong
Now you’re on the run
Thе bullets are lost in those brokеn hearts
Piled up

[Refrain]
Why do we let so many throw us away
[Verse 2]
We keep pushing on
Keep tryna find that said ‘one’
God we’re so strong

Lover you’re a killer
No need for a sinner
You shoot it up, the bleeding heart
That doesn’t deserve it
The one that thinks they need it
You’re so fucked up
You’re so messed up
Don’t you know what it’s like

[Chorus 2]
And if love is a gun
Then we keep shooting down the ones who’ve done nothing wrong
Now you’re on the run
The bullets are lost in those broken hearts
Piled up

Now you’re behind bars
I hope you are
I need it just to fall asleep
And if love is a gun
No if love is a gun
[Refrain]
Why do we let so many throw us away
Bear the pain, of heartache

[Bridge]
Lover you’re a killer
Lover you’re a sinner
Lover you’re a killer
And I’m terrified, I’m petrified

Lover you’re a killer
Lover you’re a sinner
Lover you’re a killer
And I’m terrified you have my life

[Chorus 3]
And if love is a gun
Then we keep shooting down the ones who’ve done nothing wrong
Now you’re on the run
The bullets are lost in those broken hearts
Piled up
And if love is a gun
No if love is a gun
And if love is a gun
No if love is a gun
[Outro]
Man, you have a gun in your hand
Man, you have my heart in your hand
