Lyrics
hey, where you going tonight
are you restless and hoping that trouble finds you
will you let it blind you
to all the pain it caused before
well, there's nowhere for you to run
Juliet's got a gun
does that thrill tickle up and down your spine
look a stranger in the eye and say "you're mine"
it's a ruthless game, all that strategy
'til someone ends up begging to be free
but there's nowhere for you to run
Juliet's got a gun
go on fool yourself this time you'll get away
that she didn't notice every time you strayed
'til the words tumble from her lips, from her soul
and tear you into halves, unworthy whole
ten little fingers wrapped in leather
oh so clever
when she smiles you know the night won't last forever
yeah, now you know the night won't last forever
now there's nowhere for you to run
Juliet's got a gun
