it seems you had it more right the first time...i think she was speaking in metaphor. that she didn't really shoot him, but the verbal assault should have done the same damage.
i'm a guy, so this all applies a little differently to me...i used to think of this song as a description of one of my relationships...my relationship with God. I was kind of like "where the hell have you been" and God was like "look, I can't give you all my time" and so we struggled and he won and I said ok, what-the-hell ever it makes me happy to believe you even if I don't. i know that isn't why she wrote the song..but that's what it meant to me.
