Lyrics Phillip Phillips

Phillip Phillips

Trigger

I heard the words come out of your mouth again

So quietly you said

"I need someone to hold my heart again

Like it felt when I was just a kid"

Will you take me far away

From this fear that pulls me near?

Will you take it out?

What's inside of my mind, what's screaming out

Inside your hand it holds the question to it all

You start to pull the trigger, you start to pull the trigger

Inside your mind it goes where no one really knows

You start to pull the trigger, you start to pull the trigger

I saw the tears roll down from your eyes again

So softly they fell

I reached to you to wipe them off your chin

But you stopped me and said

"Please just leave me be.

I feel as though no one knows what goes on inside of me"

Then I turned to see it was too late to give you love

But it was too late to give you up

Inside your hand it holds the question to it all

You start to pull the trigger, you start to pull the trigger

Inside your mind it goes where no one really knows

You start to pull the trigger, you start to pull the trigger

And I saw how it all went down

You picked it up and threw it out

I saw how it all went down again

Inside your hand it holds the question to it all

I start to pull the trigger, I start to pull the trigger

Inside my mind it goes where no one ever knows

I start to pull the trigger, I start to pull the trigger
