[English]

It’s never an easy thing to do

Do stand in front of you

It’s like a thriller movie

Things are going well

And something goes wrong

That’s when we’re going down

Your eyes getting cold

Heavy atmosphere

I stand still

Sitting still

To catch my breath

The way we

Talk to each other

Gets harsh and harsh

Yeah Shoot me

Bang bang

Your Bullet bullet bullet

I’ll take as many as you want

If this is what you wanted

Just shoot me

Shoot Me

Aim to me

Bang bang

It’s easier easier easier for me

It’s getting old now

If this is gonna make you feel better

Just shoot me

Shoot Me

It’s not what I expected

What I wanted from us was

A romance movie

But the reality is

So easy to go wrong

It’s like a drama

Your line in it "It’s over now"

I hope you don’t mean it

You’re just unstable

That’s why you said it

I want to believe it that way

The way we

Talk to each other

Gets harsh and harsh

Yeah Shoot me

Bang bang

Your Bullet bullet bullet

I’ll take as many as you want

If this is what you wanted

Just shoot me

Shoot Me

Aim to me

Bang bang

It’s easier easier easier for me

It’s getting old now

If this is gonna make you feel better

Just shoot me

Shoot Me

I’m okay

So if you wanna hurt me

Baby just hurt me

I’m okay

So if you wanna hurt me

Baby just hurt me

Each bullet getting lodged in my heart

It hurts really bad

It hurts so bad so bad

Yeah Shoot me

Bang bang

Your Bullet bullet bullet

I’ll take as many as you want

If this is what you wanted

Just shoot me

Shoot Me

Aim to me

Bang bang

It’s easier easier easier for me

It’s getting old now

If this is gonna make you feel better

Just shoot me

Shoot Me
