Shoot me up
And beat me down
For my crimes
Against what we once called love

I’ll meet you at high noon
Bring your gun I’ll bring my will

I leave to you a list of apologizes and regrets
Do what you want with it
It only gets harder from here
So **** the gun and pull the trigger
Steady aim

Shoot it through my skull
And I'll lay lifeless
On the ground
Nothing remains

They say the punishment must fit the crime so
Hang me at the gallows
Burn me at the stake
Send me to the guillotine
Then dig me a shallow grave
My remorse is deep
A life that’s okay to take
The guilt is mine to keep
Impale me
And nail me to the wall
Drink my tears in laughter kick me when I’m down
I stare down the barrel and feel nothing
Satisfy me
