High Flight Society inhaling a bullet

How did it come down to this?
I can’t be sure of
What it was I missed
The flags weren’t flying
Wait it out or fight?
This could never end
Maybe either way I die
There’s nothing left here to defend
Chorus:
I could not breathe without inhaling a bullet
God knows I’ve tried
You cut me down right to my face and I took it
But now it’s time
Time to put this to an end
So that I can breathe again
I feel the tension build
In my trigger finger
Before you shoot to kill
Should I open fire?
You left me with no choice
It’s not what I want
Tried to kill me with your voice
I’ll do what I have to
Chorus:
I could not breathe without inhaling a bullet
God knows I’ve tried
You cut me down right to my face and I took it
But now it’s time
Time to put this to an end
So that I can breathe again
