I wrote this next song the same way I wrote the previous one, I randomly came up with the "catchy" tune of the chorus (if I do say so myself) and decided to finish it. It has a kind of a slow tune yet a pop vibe to it. I think the best voice for it would be Harry Styles. So Harry, this is for you.
Shots Fired
Verse
You and I
We were born to fight, it seems
We've been fighting over everything
And I seem to have a big ole knot in my head
You and I
We're like flames across the sea
We won't quit for anything
And I got such a whole damn lot in my head
We're explosive
And you know this
But you don't quit
So I'll expose it
Chorus
Boom / shots fired
You caught me losing my mind / in barbed wire
You think you got me this time / no I'm higher
You called the shots but I calmed the fire
Now I'm fired up / fired up, darlin'
Verse
You and I
We were born to die it seems
We've been dying over everything
Yeah you lost but you got everything instead
You and I
We both play a tough game
And I don't think that'd ever change
'Cause I got such a whole damn lot in my head
We're explosive
And you know this
But you won't quit
So I'll expose it
Chorus
Boom / shots fired
You caught me losing my mind / in barbed wire
You think you got me this time / no I'm higher
You called the shots but I calmed the fire
Now I'm fired up / fired up, darlin'
Bridge
Darlin'
You've got me losing it
Darlin'
You've got me hollerin'
Darlin'
You've got me losing it
Darlin'
Now I can't fight for shit
Chorus
Boom / shots fired
You caught me losing my mind / in barbed wire
You think you got me this time / no I'm higher
You called the shots but I calmed the fire
Now I'm fired up / fired up, darlin'
Boom / shots fired
You caught me losing my mind / in barbed wire
You think you got me this time / no I'm higher
So you call the shots and I'll calm the fire
'Cause I'm fired up / fired up, darlin'.
