Wounded by You

© 2009 Eve Fleishman

I keep getting wounded by you

I can’t seem to avoid the arrows

Please leave me forever more

Close this open door

And let me go

I keep getting wounded by you

I can’t seem to escape the shadows

Please tell me what I should do

If I follow you

I’m good as gone

And maybe someday

I’ll find a way to move on

But for now it’s my plight

To be locked in your sights

So I keep getting wounded by you

I feel it slip through bone and marrow

Who knew you could be the one

You’re the smoking gun

That I adore

And I keep getting wounded by you
