This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”
Some people say Some people do
Some people say they do What about you
Some people please Some only tease
If you pull the trigger You better be ready for me
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun
Your love's got me on the run
I've been shot like a bullet through the dark
You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake No matter what you do
For my aim is true And I'm pointing straight at you
Baited words On candied hooks
Making eyes and Catching looks
Tender traps That are laid so well
You got me somewhere Between heaven and hell
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun
Your love's got me on the run
I've been shot like a bullet through the dark
You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake No matter what you do
For my aim is true And I'm pointing straight at you
Some people lose Some people win
Some people are never happy 'Till they do it again
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun
Your love's got me on the run
I've been shot like a bullet through the dark
You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake No matter what you do
For my aim is true And I'm pointing straight at you
Some people say they do What about you
Some people please Some only tease
If you pull the trigger You better be ready for me
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun
Your love's got me on the run
I've been shot like a bullet through the dark
You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake No matter what you do
For my aim is true And I'm pointing straight at you
Baited words On candied hooks
Making eyes and Catching looks
Tender traps That are laid so well
You got me somewhere Between heaven and hell
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun
Your love's got me on the run
I've been shot like a bullet through the dark
You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake No matter what you do
For my aim is true And I'm pointing straight at you
Some people lose Some people win
Some people are never happy 'Till they do it again
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun
Your love's got me on the run
I've been shot like a bullet through the dark
You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake No matter what you do
For my aim is true And I'm pointing straight at you

Shudder to Think
This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation.
Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.
