Lyrics Put The Gun Down - Andy Black

Put The Gun Down

Here’s where it starts, another night alone in the dark
Hate is running through my veins
Steady now I’m takin' aim
The darkness of day, all the skies are turning to grey
I can’t tune the voices out
How’d they get so goddamn loud?
Oh, cause there’s a side, another side of me that can’t get out
A darker side that no one knows about
Can’t anybody hear me?
Can’t anybody see me?
Cause I think I lost my way
Put the gun down, Just put the gun down
Will anybody watch me?
Is someone gonna stop me?
This could be my last mistake
Put the gun down, just put the gun down, down
Here’s where it ends
I’m never going back there again
Cause every time I’m standing by
The shadows in my line of sight
When does it stop?
Cause I’m living cold and shut off
Even when I clench my fists, it’s slipping through my fingertips
Oh, cause there’s a piece, there’s a piece of me and it’s missing now
Yeah, there’s is a piece of me that’s breaking down
That’s when I look myself in the mirror
Now I’m seeing things a little clearer
Honest, I can’t hide what’s inside me
I said I’m tired of pointing the finger
Tired of this hand holding the trigger
Now I’m done with that, I gotta take one step back
Can’t anybody
Here’s where it starts, another night alone in the dark
Hate is running through my veins
Steady now I’m takin' aim
