[VERSE 1]
|
What are you trying to hide?
|
You won't let me inside.
|
The fear's only in your mind.
|
I can see it in your eyes.
|
|
[BRIDGE]
|
And I try to get through to you,
|
But I don't know what to do.
|
You're making it hard
|
To get to your heart.
|
And it seems these days,
|
That everybody wears
|
A bullet proof vest.
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
If love is a blank dart
|
Shot from a heart-shaped gun,
|
It only hurts you
|
When you try to turn and run.
|
When will you see
|
That you don't need
|
A bullet proof vest?
|
|
[VERSE 2]
|
Please take it off for me.
|
I won't shoot,
|
I'll let you breathe
|
I wanna feel you feeling me.
|
Oh, baby, love?
|
Don't bleed?
|
|
[BRIDGE]
|
And I try to get through to you.
|
I don't know what to do.
|
You're making it hard
|
To get to your heart.
|
And it seems these days,
|
That everybody wears
|
A bullet proof vest.
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
If love is a blank dart,
|
Shot from a heart-shaped gun,
|
It only hurts you
|
When you try to turn and run.
|
When will you see that you don't need
|
A bullet proof vest?
|
|
[Repeat Chorus]
