[Verse 1]
Fogged up the windows in the back
Coffee and menthol on your breath
Uppers and my heart never meshed
I hated coming down
But this feels the same without the bad things
[Chorus]
So whenever you want me I'll be around

I'm a bullet in a shotgun waiting to sound
Whenever you want me I'll be around
I'm a bullet in a shotgun waiting to sound

And whenever you want me I'll be around
I'm a bullet in a shotgun waiting to sound
Whenever you want me I'll be around
I'm a bullet in a shotgun waiting to sound
Whenever you want me I'll be around
I'm a bullet in a shotgun waiting to sound
Whenever you want me I'll be around
I'm a bullet in a shotgun waiting to sound
Oh, yeah
