The first time you shot me down I was grazed 
Second round was never found, ricocheted 
Nowhere to run, I was stunned in a daze 
A victim of a love I can't escape 

I remember when you said you loved me 
Three little words that burned into my soul 
Maybe you didn't mean those things you told me 
Maybe you didn't really mean those words at all 

I'll bite the bullet 
I'll do it in the name of love 
I guess I'll bite the bullet 
Or stop playing with loaded guns 
Stop playing with loaded guns 

What do you want from me? 
Baby what you want from me? 
You think you have the ability to love two women equally 
Well I don't have the energy to fight for your exclusivity 
Cause I remember when you said you loved me 
That's why it's so damn hard to let you go 
Did you mean them things you told me? 
Did you ever really love me at all? 

I'll bite the bullet 
I'll do it in the name of love 
I guess I'll bite the bullet 
Or stop playing with loaded guns 
Stop playing with loaded guns 

All this back and forth, what is it for? 
The silent games, the tug of war 
Wish I could break down your walls 
Be the one you call, catch you when you fall 
Brick by brick, I thought that we could build again 
But now I know this is the end 

I'll bite the bullet 
I'll do it in the name of love 
I guess I'll bite the bullet 
Or stop playing with loaded guns 
Stop playing with loaded guns
