Gunslinger Girl
Desert Love's Twisted Tale: Gunslinger Girl Chronicles
Lyrics
I once was lost. Then I was surely found
I experienced a period of being lost but eventually found myself.
By a woman who was crossed
I encountered a woman who had faced difficulties.
She came in to shoot me down
She entered my life with the intention to harm me.
But her mark was off
Her aim was inaccurate during the attack.
And a couple of the bullets found, my lover screaming, limping off
Some bullets hit my lover, causing pain and distress.
Swearing that I tied her down
My lover accused me of restraining her, possibly metaphorically.
I said
I responded to the accusation.
Gunslinger girl you know I love you (You)
Expressing love for the gunslinger girl despite the challenges.
Gunslinger girl don’t leave me down. Don’t you leave me down
Pleading for the gunslinger girl not to abandon me.
Well a couple months went by
A passage of time.
Then came a Latino love name Maria
A new love interest named Maria, likely of Latino origin, entered the scene.
Her smile caught more than my eyes
Maria's smile captivated more than just visual attention.
She’d bath me and make margaritas
Maria took care of me and made margaritas.
Then one day Slinger had a surprise
The gunslinger girl had a surprise for me.
She made a picnic outside of Reno
We had a picnic outside of Reno.
Well we ate, drank laughed and cried
We shared moments of eating, drinking, laughing, and crying.
Then she shot me and said I know about Ms. Tequila
The gunslinger girl revealed knowledge about another woman, Ms. Tequila.
Gunslinger girl you know I love you (You)
Reiterating love for the gunslinger girl despite the revelation.
Gunslinger girl don’t leave me down (Down)
Requesting not to be abandoned despite the challenges.
Gunslinger girl I always adore you (You)
Expressing enduring admiration for the gunslinger girl.
Gunslinger girl don’t leave me down. Don’t you leave me down
Pleading once again not to be left alone.
Well she pushed me in a shallow hole
The gunslinger girl took drastic action by putting me in a shallow grave.
And there lay my sweet Maria
My lover, Maria, was laid to rest in that hole.
I said now Slinger, baby, please don’t go
Pleading with the gunslinger girl not to leave.
She smiled and said tell it to the reaper
The gunslinger girl remained unmoved, suggesting an acceptance of death.
The last thing that I heard; was the sound of her V8 fading deeper
The last thing heard was the sound of her V8 engine as she left for home.
Into the desert, towards home
The gunslinger girl headed into the desert.
They say death comes like a creeper
A reflection on the inevitability of death.
Gunslinger girl you know I love you (You)
Reiterating love for the gunslinger girl despite the tragic events.
Gunslinger girl don’t leave me down (Down)
Pleading once again not to be abandoned despite the challenges.
Gunslinger girl I always adore you (You)
Expressing enduring admiration for the gunslinger girl.
Gunslinger girl don’t leave me down. Don’t you leave me down?
Pleading once more not to be left alone.
Well I once was lost. And now I pray that I’m found
A return to the theme of being lost but now hoping to be found through prayer.
