The Gun

The dark is a scary place (when you're all alone) Get out your switchblade (face your fate) follow her home (hiding in the shadows) The difference between love and murder (is the gun) Grab her hand (pull her close) she wanders with someone else (she was never yours) The cold hard truth (she doesn't even know your name) The difference between love and murder (is the gun) wait at the train station (they arrive at eleven) get out your .45 (no one will ever see them again) photograph their faces (a picture for your album) The difference between love and murder (is the gun)
