Shoot Me Down

• Artist: gloomymomo
• Description: I wrote this to listening to a song called Like a Knife by Secondhand Serenade so it’s probably better read to the song. I actually didn’t mean to end up writing this. But it came out so here it is you know. I hope you like it and comments and critiquing is appreciated.
  P.S. the reference image just seemed to fit the moment it really had nothing to do with the poem while I was writing it.

Shoot Me down I’m Begging You Please

Are your words a ready weapon?
Could your insults be bullets?
Well let me grab a vest
Because this time I’m gonna pull through it
Can you hit me with your best shot?
Show me your arsenal of pain
No matter what you do with it ill be okay
I’m so sick of running trying to get away
This time I’m standing down so bring on the pain
You can make it rain some bullets and bomb us from the sky
But I willn't leave anymore and I’m too tired to god damn try
We're ready for the end I’m ready to die because fear is taking over our minds
Consuming us inside till there’s nothing left
Not a single inking of other emotions maybe still there a drop at best
And living without greater emotions isn’t having a ******** life it’s easier just to die
So its time to beat us down bash our brain out .and stab us in the chest with your knives
Just make this job is your best because if you don’t kill us we'll end up having to keep living the same
Day by Day in that cold numbing phobia that nothing will ever change knowing that will never see the sun shine the same
