Cover art for Don't Give That Girl a Gun lyrics by Indigo Girls

this is a classic break-up song. It is about knowing you screwed up and lost something really good. You know you deserve to get dumped and you can't ever get your love back. You hate yourself and you wish your ex and her friends would just shoot you by getting all the hate and resentment over at once. The lesbian community is very small and everyone knows everyone's business. If you cheat or hurt yor partner it will get around and everone will telll you what an ass you are. This song is about that.
