Bullet for Your Gun
Black River Drive Lyrics

Their mistake
Somebody else made a mistake, not you.

You wish they would go away
You wish the other person(s) involved would go away.

The blame never lies with you
You are not to blame for what happened.

You wish they could see the truth
You wish the other person(s) involved could see the truth of the situation.

It's not your fault.
You are not at fault for what happened.

Medicate
Use medication to make the feelings go away.

Until it all goes away.
Continuously medicate until the feelings go away.

They're the ones who hurt you so
The other person(s) involved are the ones who hurt you.

Its obvious that they don't know
It's obvious that the other person(s) involved don't understand the gravity of the situation.

you said so
You communicated to the other person(s) involved that they don't understand.

I can't give you what you need.
I am not able to give you what you require.

I can't save you now.
I am not able to save you from the situation.

I am not a bullet for your gun
I cannot be used to hurt others or solve your problems for you.

I cannot erase the things you've done
I am unable to fix the mistakes that were made.

I am not the drug you need
I cannot be used to medicate or numb the pain caused by the situation.

I cant stop the cuts that bleed
I am not able to stop the pain caused by what happened.

I am not Jesus for your cross
I cannot bear the burden of the situation or be a savior for you.

I can't give back what you have lost
I cannot return what you have lost or fix the damage that was done.

I can't make your problems disappear
I am not able to make the problems resulting from the situation go away.

I am not the answer, the answer to your prayer
I am not the solution to the problem, the solution that you hope for.

Close to me
Emotionally attached to me.

You can think I can set you free
You believe I can help you escape the situation.

Cant you see that I'm just one man
I am only one person and am not superhuman.

You don't seem to understand
You don't fully comprehend what I am trying to explain to you.

It's out of my hands
I am not in control of the situation.

So let us pray
Let us hope or pray for a solution.

he is the truth and way
Referring to God or a higher power.

but it's starting to wear thin now
The hope and prayers for a solution are becoming less effective or believable.

you're starting to see just how
You are beginning to understand the limits of the situation.

it really is.
Accepting the reality of the situation.

the answer to your prayer
The desired solution to the problem.

I am not a bullet for your gun
I cannot be used to hurt others or solve your problems for you.

I cannot erase the things you've done
I am unable to fix the mistakes that were made.

I am not the drug you need
I cannot be used to medicate or numb the pain caused by the situation.

I can't stop the cuts that bleed
I am not able to stop the pain caused by what happened.

I am not Jesus for your cross
I cannot bear the burden of the situation or be a savior for you.

I can't give back what you have lost
I cannot return what you have lost or fix the damage that was done.

I can't make your problems disappear
I am not able to make the problems resulting from the situation go away.

I am not the answer to your prayer
I am not the solution to the problem, the desired solution that you hope for.

the answer to your prayer
The desired solution to the problem.

the answer to your prayer
The desired solution to the problem.

the answer to your prayer
The desired solution to the problem.
