GUNS&ROSES (Shadow x Amy Song) lyrics
by Thai McGrath
[Shadow, Amy, Both, (spoken)]
[Intro]
Guns and roses! It's guns and roses!
Decorate, mourning guns and roses
Guns and roses! It's guns and roses!
Decorate, mourning guns and roses
Guns and roses! It's guns and roses!
Decorate, mourning guns and roses
(You sounded so good!)
(Tch... you're out of time. Don't let it happen again.)
(What! Why you...!)
[Verse One]
My sweet passion aside
I've realized that it might be you I need
So dark, yet so minimized
Those ways you try to hide every smile that you sneak
I'm done running
Loopty-looping longingly lost
I'm just gunning
Loading love so lavishly lush
So if you're playing with guns
Then I'm your hammer adorn
Cause it takes only one trigger to find your court
(You've been staring at me for thirty seconds! What?)
([Oh no! I spaced out! What do I say?])
(Marry me!)
(What?)
(M-m-m-merry Christmas, Shadow! [Wow! Pat on the back for that save.])
(Right...)
[Verse Two]
All of me aside
I've realized that it might be me you seek
So bright and energized
Those ways you weaponize with memories never seen
I'll keep running
I don't think that I'd survive your eyes
I'll keep gunning
To forget it all and leave it all behind
If you're a rose, then I guess
I guess that I'll be the thorns
Because protecting you is all that I'm good for
[Chorus]
It's guns and roses
Throw it all away for love you find
It's guns and roses
Decorate the mourning in your mind
It's guns and roses
Every sweet passion that you'll wind
Inside, just guns and roses
One morning at a time
[Post-Chorus]
Petal to your metal, petal to your metal, gas gas!
Petals are so pretty, pretty til you hit the gas, gas!
Petal to your metal, oh, oh, oh!
[Verse Three]
What's your birthday? Your full name?
Oh, Geminis are a Libra's fav!
Gem and what? Are you insane?
No, silly, it's how you behave!
Here, pick three cards off the top
I don't play games!
Don't joke! Just stop!
But decks are meant to be!
Then tell the deck [censored: F*CK F*CK F*CK]
Is it so bad to look at you?
Tell me all the things that make you new
How do I know we're not seeing ghosts
You just don't, you just don't
Your reassurance echoes in my mind
Of a time when love was still mine
So I threw it out, I threw you out
Out of my mind, left behind
[Chorus]
It's guns and roses
Throw it all away for love you find
It's guns and roses
Decorate the mourning in your mind
It's guns and roses
Every sweet passion that you'll wind
Inside, just guns and roses
One morning at a time
[Bridge]
What I didn't want to say
Is you remind me of a love long away
What I didn't want to take
Was a feeling that you gave
Called hope
I hoped somebody would care for me
I hoped that in some way that you would be
A glimmer of the past, I used to know
But it's too wrong to go and move on from what I know
Oh, I should have known...
You're just like them!
(The cards told me you'd be back! [clears throat] Not that I cared.)
(Right. About what I said...)
(Yeah?)
[Verse Four]
How about a concert?
Would you like a concert?
Is that an invitation for me?
(Tch, go by yourself.)
Nope! You're coming to see
Unless you wanna make a girl weep
We can dance and sing away towards the stage
I wanna see you ease up for a change
(Uh, no, I have two left feet)
(Typical Gemini.)
I can pull up on my bike one day
We can ride off to the shooting range!
(That's so violent!)
(What? You don't like it?)
We can have a long walk on the beach
Cuddle up real close as the sun makes reach
(I can't.) (What?) (The sand clogs my air shoes.) (Ah!)
Okay, we'll just dance all the day away
Whatever it takes, just put the hammer away!
[Chorus]
It's guns and roses
Throw it all away for love you find
It's guns and roses
Decorate the mourning in your mind
It's guns and roses
Every sweet passion that you'll wind
Inside, just guns and roses
One morning at a time
It's guns and roses
Throw it all away for love you find
It's guns and roses
Decorate the mourning in your mind
It's guns and roses
Every sweet passion that you'll wind
Inside, just guns and roses
One morning at a time
[Post-Chorus]
Petal to your metal, petal to your metal, gas gas!
Petals are so pretty, pretty til you hit the gas, gas!
Petal to your metal, mush, mush, mush!
[Outro]
(I hope we can do this again sometime!)
(Hmph... me too.)
(What was that? Hmm?)
(I said... look out there's a pipe bomb!)
(What?)
