A Bullet And A Song

I aim my words just right
Like a bullet in the night
You fall and say I missed
But what about that hole in your chest

You laugh and say
I'll get the best of you someday
I'll get the best of you

If I'm the knife in your back
The cause of your heart attack
I'd say I didn't mean to
But if I said I didn't have a clue,
That just wouldn't be the truth

You break down and say
I'll treat you right someday
But I can't wait for you

I'm a lady of my word
I give second chances
Sometimes a third
But you overstayed your welcome
And you need to go
Have a nice day
Please don't come back
Another day

You get down on your knees
Your sorry eyes they plead
But this is my last song
For you

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is actually a song, but I don't see much difference between my poetry and my lyrics.
