[Verse 1] You opened the door To the end of your story I followed you home Tracing your shadow Not your glory Name on a screen Red line through your face I memorized every habit Every coffee place You laughed with the clerk Tilted your head when you listened I watched from the rain Felt something terrible glisten Finger on steel Breath on the sight But my pulse broke rank Wouldn't fall in line tonight [Chorus] I was sent to end you But I just can’t pull the trigger on your name Crosshair heart It’s shaking Every shot I line up turns to flame So I drag you from their radar Lock the world outside Erase the chart If I can’t miss the target Then I’ll keep you in my crosshair heart [Verse 2] You wake in the dark Canvas walls Single light My jacket on your shoulders You ask “Did I die tonight?” I hand you some tea Watch your hands as they’re trembling “Only on paper ” I answer “My orders are canceling” Files on the table Your picture burned at the edges You read every word All their secret pledges “You were supposed to—” “I know ” I cut in “But somewhere between the rooftops I forgot who should win” [Chorus] I was sent to end you But I just can’t pull the trigger on your name Crosshair heart It’s shaking Every shot I line up turns to flame So I drag you from their radar Lock the world outside Erase the chart If I can’t miss the target Then I’ll keep you in my crosshair heart [Bridge] [Beat drops to low hum and whispered vocal] Every window sealed Every line redirected I’ve turned this trap To a temple for the protected If they come for you They’ll have to walk through me I’ve lived on orders Now I choose my own treachery (oh) [Chorus] I was sent to end you But I just can’t pull the trigger on your name Crosshair heart It’s yours now Let them hunt Let them curse my stain I erased you from their radar Locked the world outside Tore up the chart If I can’t miss the target Then I’ll keep you in my crosshair heart Yeah I’ll keep you in my crosshair heart
