WAS it me you were gunning for I looked around for the sound as I hit the floor Thought I saw you standin' by the door just before you slipped away Bad days only lie ahead, we shot it out and our love was left for dead Would you rather it were me instead, is this the only way Chorus: What can I say, these are violent days, violent days Love slips away, these are violent days, violent days And so we find that we can't go on Pack a bag and you head out on the run Move by night to elude the sun and avoid the light of day It wasn't love we were running from We gave in to what we thought was a different drum Take a look at what it's become, it's sad but it's the truth Chorus Is anybody old enough to remember when This division and doubt won out and the loneliness began Some say it's just the turn of the dice Others say we should be willing to sacrifice Think it over but don't think twice, don't let it spoil your day Chorus--(out)
