Shotgun Road (redemption) Lyrics

Here is the bleeding heart
Remember she once declared
Now she just plays her part
Deadly game of solitaire
And you may have trade places
Moved in for the kill
Yes, traded faces
But you can never break her will
it is my life now someone lived it before
like mirrors reflecting but never opening doors
its my life now finally up to me
it is my life now i give up purity
there's no redemption in those arms tonight
so c'mon take up your rifle aim it low
no redemption in the stars so bright
so lead me down the road
She left an empty space
Is it me you will save
They say she left her bed in haste
Like screams from a livid grave
And I don't see attraction from within your eyes
But I don't need that satisfaction
So just keep telling me those lies
is it my life now someone lived it before
like mirrors reflecting but never opening doors
is it my life now is up to me
well the mirrors they shattered the doors are all opening
there's no redemption in those arms so tight
so c'mon take up your rifle aim it slow
better arm yourself now from the stars so white
its raining down the shotgun road
