[Verse 1]
I gave it everything
Till my hands shook
Teeth tight
You just stared through me
Like I’m flickering porch light
You said
“You’re almost there”
Like the line keeps moving
Every step I take
Feels like I’m just losing
[Chorus]
Am I dodging a bullet
Or losing the love of my life
Standing right on the trigger
You’re the aim and I’m the sights
If I walk
Am I saving
What’s left on the inside
Am I dodging a bullet
Or losing the love of my life
[Verse 2]
You’re my safest war
My soft-spoken landmine
Every kiss tastes
Half like peace
Half land slide
I’m stretched so thin
I can hear the fibers cry
Every “it’s fine” from you
Feels like one more quiet lie
[Chorus]
Am I dodging a bullet
Or losing the love of my life
Standing right on the trigger
You’re the aim and I’m the sights
If I stay
Am I trading
The rest of my tired mind
Am I dodging a bullet
Or losing the love of my life
[Bridge]
I’m in between calm and a breakdown
In between reach and let go now (let go now)
If I choose you
Do I lose me
If I choose me
Do you bleed out
[Chorus]
Am I dodging a bullet
Or losing the love of my life
Torn between peace and the fallout
Between goodbye and “we’ll be fine”
If I run
Am I saving
What’s left of my fragile mind
Am I dodging a bullet
Or losing the love of my life (oh)
Am I dodging a bullet
Or losing the love of my life
