Hold Me Like a Gun Lyrics by Elise Davis

Cactus

2018

In the motel pool I watch the stars shining
I'm faded out enough to think I idolize him
Will I sink or swim?
In the motel pool I watch the sun rising

Blame it on the arrows stuck in my heart
Blame it on the restless soul I had from the start
I don't wanna wake up feeling so numb
But I know myself
You gotta hold me like a gun

In the morning light the mystery all disappears
I'm feeling good enough to find my own way out of here
Blue moon souvenirs
In the morning light the mystery disappears

Blame it on the arrows stuck in my heart
Blame it on the restless soul I had from the start
I don't wanna wake up feeling so numb
But I know myself
You gotta hold me like a gun

You gotta hold me like a gun
You gotta hold me like a gun

Blame it on the arrows stuck in my heart
Blame it on the restless soul I had from the start
I don't wanna wake up feeling so numb
But I know myself
You gotta hold me like a gun

But I know myself
You gotta hold me like a gun

But I know myself
You gotta hold me like a gun
