Don't Shoot Me Down Lyrics - Goapele

I can't sleep at night, nah 

Voices getting louder now she's fleeing from the car 

Words are like bullets, when they heal they leave scars 

If love is a battlefield, then we are at war 

I remember before we were happy, we fall 

In and out of love like tides on a seashore 

Is it right to leave off, what you need to breathe off 

Then you take the time that you need to grieve of 

Most don't stop, they following on the course 

Slipper slope that always ends in divorce 

Do I make tracks like the tears of a clown 

As hard as is to fly, she still shoots me down 

Maybe in a minute, this could all be done and finished 

But I promise that I'm with it if we just forgive 

Forget it, I'm wrong baby, but we are the floss baby 

Cuz happy, I was thinking and my positive's a shrinking 

And you looking me when speaking like what was I just thinking 

It's past due, why am I with you, yeah 

I've been thinking that it's so real, what does it feel 

To give it your all and feel like you're falling baby 

I've been thinkin that it's so cruel, to be confused 

It's like I'm caught in a maze, running away 

Please don't shoot me down 

Cause I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying 

Don't wanna leave now 

Please don't shoot me down 

Cause I'm flying 

Don't wanna leave now 

Maybe we should just be silent, not, your supposed to make us smile 

Everything is not one-sided, can you just hear me out baby 

There's no need to shout baby 

I know we go through life, be silent, but most people ride or die 

And don't give up just keep on flying 

On and on babe, we just can't fall, no, no 

I've been thinking that it's so real, what does it feel 

Feel like to give it your all and feel like you fall 

I've been thinkin that it's so cruel, to be confused 

I'm caught in a maze, We're running away 

Please don't shoot me down 

Cause I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm flying 

Don't wanna leave now 

Please don't shoot me down 

Cause I'm flying 

Don't wanna leave now
