Текст песни Dodging Bullets - Rona Kenan

I'm dodging bullets in the dark, a sitting duck outside the park
Diving to find shelter under some imaginary arc
This film is such a drag but I'm invested in the part
If you can't tell me when to stop,
Why won't you tell me when to start?
I think of all the the time I spent on cheap champagne and discontent
Show me something shooting straight and I'll tell you that it's bent
I try to move my feet but I'm sinking in cement
If this is not a sin, at least allow me to repent
Night and day I try and tame unwanted thoughts, my guilt and shame
I used to hold the arrow, now I don't remember how to aim
I'm dodging bullets in my dream but this is not a game
I wish someone would tell me how to pose inside this lonely frame
I heard something that caught my ear
I heard something that caught my ear
And ever since September I've been
Waiting for this feeling to just disappear
I know that I'm just buying time transforming this into rhyme
I can't think of a better way to suffocate it in its prime
Why would I return to the exact scene of the crime
It's such a thrill to think of you that all the bells inside me chime
Look at all the mess we've made magnetized to this jade
It's self inflicted pain but we know where we hid the blade
Something lost and found eventually will fade
I thought I dodged a bullet but it seems it was a hand grenade
You said something that caught my ear
You said something that caught my ear
And ever since September I've been
Waiting for this feeling to just disappear
