Shoot

I read a story about somebody

Who drove his family off a bridge

I have a feeling like that's what happening

But I don't know which of us it is

There have been times you've kinda scared me

But I am the one who will not quit

But if I'm to blame then, I've got questions like

What if the gas pedal sticks?

What if it hurts

Last night I dreamt of the bar in Chinatown

Sticky counters and vinyl booths

Playing Springsteen '88, his almost country phase

I was dancing for you

I spill your tall can, spill my guts

That's how it felt to tell the truth

I put my hand up across the dartboard

And then I told you to shoot

What if it hurts

What if it hurts

It's gonna

You said it's gonna hurt

What can go wrong

Will go wrong

'Cause you bet that it would

So you stacked up the odds

So it hurt, hurt

It's gonna hurt

It's gonna
