*Author's Note: Just me reflecting on the events that happened last school year (2021-2022). It's like when you're in that same time and place again but everything's different; it's nostalgic but there's also an undertone of sadness because nothing's the same anymore.

〜VERSE 1〜

August has made its way around again

Remember this time last year we had just met

Oh how quickly we became close friends

But just as quickly we crumbled to shreds

I'm here walking up those same stairs

I can almost see our ghosts passing me by

But no we weren't meant to be a pair

We lost it all in the blink of an eye

〜PRE-CHORUS〜

You were someone I wanted to keep in my life

But I guess I was someone who wasn't worth your time

〜CHORUS〜

You shot me straight through the heart

I felt the wound and fell back hard

You left me there to bleed out on the ground

Hoping my body would never be found

But you know you won't get very far

cause I'll always haunt you in the dark

So in the meantime, I'll let our memories

drain through the bullet holes of my heart

〜VERSE 2〜

I know I'll hate it when September comes

cause that's when we had some of our best moments

It's amazing how much changed in a year

You were everything but now you've disappeared

I'm here walking up those same stairs

I can almost hear our voices in the air

But no one's the same after heartbreak

I'm not that girl you met on the first day

〜PRE-CHORUS〜

You were someone I wanted to keep in my life

But I guess I was someone who wasn't worth your time

〜CHORUS〜

You shot me straight through the heart

I felt the wound and fell back hard

You left me there to bleed out on the ground

Hoping my body would never be found

But you know you won't get very far

cause I'll always haunt you in the dark

So in the meantime, I'll let our memories

drain through the bullet holes of my heart

〜BRIDGE〜

I would've taken a bullet for you

But I never knew I'd take one from you

Yeah I would've taken a bullet for you

But I never knew it would come from you

〜CHORUS〜

You shot me straight through the heart

I felt the wound and fell back hard

You left me there to bleed out on the ground

Hoping my body would never be found

But you know you won't get very far

cause I'll always haunt you in the dark

So in the meantime, I'll let our memories

drain through the bullet holes of my heart

〜OUTRO〜

Yeah I'll let our memories

drain through the bullet holes of my heart

And one day they'll turn into scars

But I'll never forget who pulled the trigger

and put these bullet holes in my heart
