"Son Of A Gun" by Search The City




So let me get this story straight,
this was just a chance you had to take
Did I even cross your mind?
This will be the last time you cross mine
We were thick as thieves,
just like a thief you stole the best of me
White lies and what lies in between

Whoa, for Heaven's sake I see right through you,
whoa, I've got secrets too
You're the gun,
and I can be your bullet you bite down on
Take your best shot 'cause you only get one

Marionette,
are your strings tied tight for proper movement?
Take a deep, deep breath,
I'm dying just to wrap these strings around your neck
But I'll stitch my eyes wide open
'cause I don't want to miss the look on your face
when I drive away
You know you're sharp
but sharp just doesn't cut it anymore
I'll show you a side of me you've never seen before

Whoa, for Heaven's sake I see right through you,
whoa, I've got secrets too
You're the gun,
and I can be your bullet you bite down on
Take your best shot 'cause you only get one

Blame it all on bottoms up,
and all the boys that kept filling your cup
I love the way you say
you don't remember anything

Whoa, for Heaven's sake I see right through you,
whoa, I've got secrets too
You're the gun,
and I can be your bullet you bite down on
Take your best shot 'cause you only get one
[x2]

Just like Angels & Airwaves, Search The City also has similes (Simile in this case) in there song. The song "Son Of A Gun" is about a girl who goes to a party and gets drunk, hence the lines "Blame it on the bottoms up/All the boys who kept filling your cup/I love the way you say/You don't remember anything" and ends up cheating on their significant other. The other doesn't believe them and is saying well they've done stuff too so ha!, "Whoa, for Heaven's sake I see right through you/Whoa I've got secrets too." This pretty sums up the whole song. The simile (There's only one sadly) are the lines "We were as thick as thieves/Just like a thief you stole the best of me." This simile is a simile because you can really steal a part of someone but sometimes it feels like something took something from you (ie: heart, soul, love ect.)
