I remember
when you used to tell me
that I was the one who saved your life
and made you feel alright

I remember
the way we would have such fun
Laughing and enjoying life for
what it should be

I remember
when things were different
Life was so much easier
and friendships never crumbled

Now I'm a zombie walking, hardly human
I've hiked across the no man's land
and I've caught all the bullets
for you and those I love

But today it is different
I recognized the gunner
The finger on the trigger
Is one that belongs to you

After all these years of loving you
I thought that this would be painful
and I heard the blast and felt the shot
but the pain was nonexistent

I can only take so many shots
and still feel the pain behind them
I've walked this road so long,
One more shot is ******* nothing
