POINT BLANK

Outtake 3

Do you say your prayers little darlin
Do you go to bed at night
Pray that tomorrow, everything will be alright
But tomorrow's fall in number in number one by one
You wake up and you're dying
You don't even know what from
Well baby, point blank, you've been shot in the back
Point blank you been fooled little girl that's a fact
You've been shot baby, point blank, point blank

If I could take your sorrow
You know that's what I would do
And baby tomorrow
And give it all away
Baby don't you worry that's exactly what I'd do
Wrap the world in a pretty bow
And give it all to you

And baby
Point blank, right between the eyes
Point blank, right between the pretty lies they sell
We fell darling, point blank, point blank, point blank

??? the night turns into to day
All your hopes and promises, they fade away
??? just trying to stay alive
But no one survives, no one survives

??? you go looking for another fix
But girl the old distractions they just don't give the kicks they used to
You get dressed up, you go out looking for someone
??? you don't know where you've gone
???
???
???
???

Cause darling
Point blank right between the eyes
Point blank between the lies that they sell
You fell baby
Point blank right in the act
One false move and baby the lights go out, no doubt darling
Point blank, point blank, point blank.
