“You Load The Gun” is a song about heartbreak in the context of murder, but from a less vengeful headspace.

[Verse 1]
Blood on my hands
If it’s justice why’s it feeling like revenge?
I need counsel from someone who understands
How it feels to lose someone you never had, never had
Look at what a mess we made, couldn’t tear my eyes away
Wish you hadn’t lied that day, day you told me you loved me
Thought you were the one, what I have become
I just can’t outrun
[Chorus]
I pull the trigger, you load the gun
I love to love you, you love to run
Tell me you need me, why you leaving?
I pull the trigger, you load the gun
[Verse 2]
So did I just read this wrong? You were dancing to our song

Was it you or was it me? Was it our hostility?
Or your insecurity? Now the answer’s out of reach
Gaslight, light me up, say I’m not enough
Sabes que soy peligrosa, you never call my bluff
How’d it get this rough? What I have become
I just can’t outrun
[Chorus]
I pull the trigger, you load the gun
I love to love you, you love to run
Tell me you need me, why you leaving?
I pull the trigger, you load the gun
