The Hit

listen to ‘The Hit’ on Audioboo

I can’t believe she put a hit out on me

After all I said, after all I’ve done

I can’t believe she took a hit out on me

They said it wasn’t personal,

It wasn’t what they were meant to do

But taxes aren’t free and times aren’t cheap

So just lie down and go to sleep

They said they’d make it fast

That I wouldn’t feel a thing

They said it would all be

Like nothing more than dream

I can’t believe she put a hit out on me

After all I did, after all I said

I thought I meant more

I thought I meant more to her

I can’t believe she took a hit out on me

They said it wasn’t personal,

They said I didn’t come cheap

Small tokens,

Small, small tokens to take

They were right

I wouldn’t feel a thing

This whole scenario’s

Numbed me deep

I can’t believe she put a hit out on me

After all I did, after all I would’ve done

I’d have thought

I’d have thought this

Would’ve been something I’d have done

Never though, did I think

That this she’d be capable of the such

I can’t believe she took a hit out on me

They said it wasn’t personal,

That all they needed was my heart

To which I stopped and laughed aloud…

As my heart had been broken long before

She ever took a hit out on me…
