One Shot

One shot and it's over
Life turned to legacy
Hope and speculation
The trusted destination
You leave, can't breathe

One word and it's happening
Full scale invasion
Silhouettes and figures
With fingers on the triggers
You leave, can't breathe

One shot and it's over
That's all it takes
One shot and it's over
Just one mistake

One crash and it's over
A mirror to the living
Life in documentaries
Conspiracy frenzies
You leave, can't breathe
