John Dartnell - Shoot Me Down in Flames Lyrics

Just a blur in the rear view mirror that's all I want you to be
But I can't find the courage as yet to walk away from you be free
I stay out drinking later so I wont care what mood you're in
I've got so tired of situations I know I just can't win

I bet you shoot me down in flames again tonight
I can't do anything that's right
All I want is just a little compassion but just like making love that's on ration
Whatever I say wont make things right
'Coz you're just gonna shoot me down in flames again tonight

You know the grass just kept on growing and that damn mower wouldn't start
I'm on my knees as I got strangled by the weeds of your empty heart
I just kept on giving till there was nothing left inside
You're like a leech with my emotions all I'm left with is my pride

I bet you shoot me down in flames again tonight
I can't do anything that's right
All I want is just a little compassion but just like making love that's on ration
Whatever I say wont make things right
'Coz you're just gonna shoot me down in flames again tonight

I bet you shoot me down in flames again tonight
I can't do anything that's right
All I want is just a little compassion but just like making love that's on ration
Whatever I say wont make things right
'Coz you're just gonna shoot me down in flames again tonight
