Lyrics
Three little heads
Three individuals or aspects.
In these four walls
Within confined spaces.
Nothing has changed
No visible alteration.
But everything's gone
Yet, a significant loss has occurred.
Two single beds
Two separate beds.
Wide open doors
Open opportunities or vulnerabilities.
Seen way too much
Witnessed numerous experiences.
In a place we called home
In a place once considered home.
Can't you see that I'm bleedin'
Expression of emotional pain.
Can't you see that your words left scars on my skin
Acknowledging the lasting impact of words.
He pulled the trigger
Repetition of someone pulling the trigger, metaphorically escaping danger, but causing harm to another.
And you dodged the bullet
-He pulled the trigger
-And you dodged the bullet
-He pulled the trigger
-And you dodged the bullet
-But it hit me instead
Despite avoiding direct harm, indirect consequences are felt.
Now love is a dead concept in my head
Love is now perceived as a lifeless idea.
Three frightened souls
Three frightened individuals or aspects.
Cracks in the walls
Visible signs of distress or damage.
Everyone's changed
A collective loss of everything.
We lost it all
Irreversible change in everyone.
Slammin' of doors
Forceful closure of opportunities.
He wanted more
A desire for more.
She lost control
Losing control of a situation.
They broke our home
Destruction of a shared space.
Can't you see that I'm bleedin'
Expression of ongoing emotional pain.
Can't you see that your words left scars on my skin
Recognition of the lasting impact of words.
He pulled the trigger
Repetition of someone pulling the trigger, escaping danger but causing harm.
And you dodged the bullet
-Yeah he pulled the trigger
-And you dodged the bullet
-He pulled the trigger
-And you dodged the bullet
-But it hit me instead
Indirect consequences affecting the speaker.
Now love is a dead concept in my head
Love is now perceived as a lifeless idea for the speaker.
You were so selfish
Reflection on the selfish and helpless nature of individuals involved, including an inability to show or receive love.
And I was so helpless
-He couldn't show love
-You couldn't help it
-You were so selfish
-And I was so helpless
-She lost her true love
-So am I being selfish
-Oh he pulled the trigger
Reiteration of the trigger-pulling metaphor and the enduring impact on the speaker, leading to the death of love as a concept.
And you dodged the bullet
-He pulled the trigger
-And you dodged the bullet
-He pulled the trigger
-And you dodged the bullet
-But it hit me instead
-Now love is a dead concept in my head
-Now love is a dead concept in my head
Final confirmation of love being perceived as a lifeless concept in the speaker's mind.
