All I ever had to say about love is a sad song
I get off on telling everybody what went wrong
It makes me feel like the pain had a purpose
Keeps me believing that maybe its worth it
Truth is all I really want is somebody who wants me
Somebody I can count on, who won't disappoint me
At first it seems easy, I vow not to give up
Let 'em debase me, while keeping my chin up
'Cause I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
How come you never put the safety on?
I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
How come you never put the safety on? Hmm
So what do people sing about once they finally found it?
Take it for granted think of how they were better without it
I'd like to imagine I'll never be like that
But if I'm honest, I know I already have
'Cause I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
How come you never put the safety on?
I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
How come you never put the safety on? Hmm
I got the trigger, but you own the gun
How come you never put the safety on?
Yeah, I got the trigger, but you hold the gun
How come you never put the safety on? Hmm
