Shot Down
BRKN LOVE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shot down in the bottom of a valley
Oh yeah

How long till the damn breaks through
Going to be hard times for me and you
How long till the way gives out
Going to be end times for there ain't no doubt
My heart doesn't bleed for you
I'm a dire wolf, going to see it through
How long till your legs give out
Going to be hard times, there will be no doubt

Landslide, shaking the ground
Landslide, shot down in the bottom of a valley
Oh, shot down in the bottom of a valley

Now ma you can see its true
What your honey drip, got my eyes on you
Not long till I break on through
Going to be end times for me and you

Landslide, shaking the ground
Landslide, shot down in the bottom of a valley
Shot down in the bottom of a valley
Yeeeeeeeah

Landslide, shaking the ground
Landslide, shot down in the bottom of a valley




Oh, shot down in the bottom of a valley
Shot down in the bottom of a valley

They got over 200k views - that's pretty good for a new relatively unknown hard rock band.

Great song with a strong guitar riff. This has a retro sound to it. Almost has a Soundgarden sound to it. I like it. Sounds like rock and roll. We need more music like this!! 🎸🎸🎸🎸
