Heartbeat Like a Gunshot

V5.5

Verse 1: You walked in like a bad idea Black leather and a crooked smile Everybody else looked away from you But I stayed a little while You talk like you’ve got secrets Like you’ve done things you can’t erase And I know I should be running But I can’t look away Pre-Chorus: There’s something dangerous In the way you move And I think I knew it Before you even looked at me Chorus: Your heartbeat hit like a gunshot Echoing under my skin I know I should run now But I wanna let you in You look like trouble in the headlights Like the kind I’ll never forget Your heartbeat hit like a gunshot And I haven’t caught my breath yet Verse 2: Everybody says you’re poison Like you only leave a mess But I’ve never been good at listening When it comes to things like this You’ve got blood beneath your knuckles And a shadow in your eyes You look like every warning sign That I’d still follow into the night Pre-Chorus: There’s something dangerous In the way you move And I think I knew it Before you even looked at me Chorus: Your heartbeat hit like a gunshot Echoing under my skin I know I should run now But I wanna let you in You look like trouble in the headlights Like the kind I’ll never forget Your heartbeat hit like a gunshot And I haven’t caught my breath yet Bridge: Maybe I just like the danger Maybe I just wanna feel alive Maybe I’m tired of pretending I don’t wanna cross the line You look at me like you know me Like you can see right through And maybe I should be afraid of that But I don’t want to Final Chorus: Your heartbeat hit like a gunshot Echoing under my skin I know I should run now But I wanna let you in You look like trouble in the headlights Like the kind I’ll never forget Your heartbeat hit like a gunshot And I haven’t caught my breath yet
