You're pulling yourself away
The state put the youth in a harness
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before
And it won't be long before
Never to be heard from, never to be seen
With a couple commas
But what you've done here
She got a skirt with a halter top
You're pulling yourself away
But what you've done here
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before
But she got engaged when she was nineteen
And it won't be long before
I check the cover of a magazine
Said one day one day one too many days
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
Mr.Dali Lamas
You can blame it on Zeus and Apollo and Adonis
She got dark, dark wavy hair
But what you've done here
Teacher said no college
You're pulling yourself away
You're pulling yourself away
A bullet and a target
I've been knowing her for years
Has a .45 that he always cleaned
Amputees in Freetown, Sierra Leone's
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
A bullet and a target
To this dude who was acting insane
And it won't be long before
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
But what you've done here
With a voice like she just don't care
Still the kid's gotta get a check
Creatin' hostility among us
Ah, what you've done here
The church wasn't honest
She got knocked up in a pickup truck

You're pulling yourself away
People wanna bomb us
What you've done here
You're pulling yourself away
And it won't be long before
I'm just wondering how, just wondering how
Is put yourself between a bullet and a target
A bullet and a target
Another sister's shootin' heroin tomorrow
She drink a beer with a proper shot
Now she ducked and she ran away
A bullet and a target
She's got a dad who never gave enough
More people gotta scatter and run from us
I've been seeing her for years
Between a bullet and a target
