- Tell Me LyricsShe said she loved me, all night long,
I couldn't help but let her string my heart along,
I knew better, I still do,
But I'm not the first man, who's ever played the fool.
So tell why do I keep holdin' on,
Oh why do I keep starin' down the barrel of a loaded gun,
So tell me why can't I just let go, somebody knows,
well then tell me.
I won't point the finger, but I'll take the blame,
Cause I saw her comin' from a million miles away,
I should have faught the feelin,
But I gave in, cause those lyin' blue eyes kept pullin'
me back in.
So tell why do I keep holdin' on,
Oh why do I keep starin' down the barrel of a loaded gun,
So tell me why can't I just let go, somebody knows, well
then tell me.
Oooohhhhhhhhh...
So tell why do I keep holdin' on,
Oh why do I keep starin' down the barrel of a loaded gun,
So tell me why can't I just let go, somebody knows,
well then tell me, Oh why can't you just tell me.
I couldn't help but let her string my heart along,
I knew better, I still do,
But I'm not the first man, who's ever played the fool.
So tell why do I keep holdin' on,
Oh why do I keep starin' down the barrel of a loaded gun,
So tell me why can't I just let go, somebody knows,
well then tell me.
I won't point the finger, but I'll take the blame,
Cause I saw her comin' from a million miles away,
I should have faught the feelin,
me back in.
So tell why do I keep holdin' on,
Oh why do I keep starin' down the barrel of a loaded gun,
So tell me why can't I just let go, somebody knows, well
then tell me.
Oooohhhhhhhhh...
So tell why do I keep holdin' on,
Oh why do I keep starin' down the barrel of a loaded gun,
So tell me why can't I just let go, somebody knows,
well then tell me, Oh why can't you just tell me.

The imagery of 'staring down the barrel of a loaded gun' implies that there is danger and risk involved in hanging on to something that is a ruin, thus questioning one’s inability to quit the cycle of pain and deceit.
