Please comment...true story by the way. My grandfather killed himself...he was an alcoholic...I never met him...but it scares me to know, I'm just like him...just that I don't drink quite as much ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My bottle's the gun and you're the trigger: Hide this underneath the covers, where we cry ourselves to sleep And hope no-one will ever notice, our hearts almost skipped a beat And we got the guns loaded, the gun's loaded, take this all away Yeah we got the guns loaded, the gun's loaded, drank myself away Ill, mind cleared but still not sober Stay close, the worst is far from over Choose now, in or out of line One day will be our day to die And we got the guns loaded, the gun's loaded, take this all away Yeah we got the guns loaded, the gun's loaded, drank myself away Yeah, the gun's loaded, gun's loaded, drank myself away See, the gun's loaded, gun's loaded, drank my mind away Taste, the gun's loaded, gun's loaded, left my life to pay EDIT: Please tell me, in the first verse. i used the word 'missed'...I'm kind of wondering if 'skipped' would be better?
I liked skipped better. Or "Passed a rythmatic beat" it's a very nice poem. Alcholism runs in my family. My grandma and granpa drowned theirselfs in it. I never knew my granpa but I know that alcohol is a part of the reason he died.
I think 'missed' was better.Had more meaning. What I mean is missed -figurative: person you lost & literal : heartbeat. Skipped - fig. : didnt care much for them.....well thats the way I interpreted it.
