Save The Bullets, Baby!

You say it's just beginning
You say it's just beginning
You say it's just beginning

I'm tongue-tied and you're tangled all around me
I'm so tired but I can't fall asleep
There's a world and it swirls inside my mind
You go there with me all the time
Deep in the trenches of my master plans
The drought of my personal wasteland
I'm spinning faster than the ceiling fan
How could anyone take me for the way I am?

Save the bullets, baby, she said
You ain't gotta fight to get in my head
So solid in the middle of my war zone
My baby handles me so gentle
If I push, will you pull a little tighter?
To you, I wanna be a little nicer
Baby, shake me when the bad thoughts take me
And take me 'cause I'm needing it lately

You were holding my face in your hands on the train
I was thinking that I could take your name
If I could learn to stay
And surrender all my weapons and my armor of deception
Lay down my resentment
I got better things to hold
Your love's a blessing
It's Armageddon

Save the bullets, baby, she said
You ain't gotta fight to get in my head
So solid in the middle of my war zone
My baby handles me so gentle
If I push, will you pull a little tighter?
To you, I wanna be a little nicer
Baby, shake me when the bad thoughts take me
And take me 'cause I'm needing it lately
I sent you away, set our forest on fire
Said I didn't want you, I'm a goddamn liar
I'm still yours

(Don't let me look down)
(Don't let me look down)
(I want you around)
(I want you around)
I wanna stare up at you so don't let me look down
There's an oath in your eyes
Now I know that I'm bound
And I'm singing your name 'cause you like how it sounds
Coming out of my mouth
You're all over my mouth
Won't you let me keep you?
And I like how it sounds
Coming out of your mouth
You're all over me now

Save the bullets, baby, she said
You got me no matter what lies ahead
So solid in the middle of my war zone
My baby handles me so gentle
If I push, will you pull a little tighter?
To you, I wanna be a little nicer
Baby, shake me when the bad thoughts take me
And take me 'cause I'm needing it lately
I sent you away, set our forest on fire
Said I didn't want you, I'm a goddamn liar
I'm still yours

And I'm singing your name 'cause you like how it sounds
Coming out of my mouth
You're all over me now
You're all over me now
You're all over me now
You're all over me now

I always think the world is ending
You say it's just beginning
You say it's just beginning
You say it's just beginning
