The Bullet Lyrics - Carrie Underwood

[Verse 1] 

Line of limousines leaves one by one 

The prayers been prayed 

The hymns been sung 

Black mascara's already run 

But the tears keep flowing 

You can blame it on hate or blame it on guns, but mamas ain't supposed to bury their sons 

Left a hole in her heart and it still ain't done 

The bullet keeps on goin' 

[Chorus] 

Through every branch of his family tree 

Every birthday that he'll never see 

Every chance to live a good life that was stolen 

Through the son he'll never get to raise 

His daughter on her wedding day 

Wishin' it was his hands she was holdin' 

'Till every heart that's left to break is broken 

The bullet keeps on goin'

[Verse 2] 

The grass grows back around the stone 

And friends stop checkin' in on the phone 

The camera crews have all moved on 

But the wound's still open 

The bullet keeps on goin' 

[Chorus] 

Through every branch of his family tree 

Every birthday that he'll never see 

Every chance to live a good life that was stolen 

Through the son he'll never get to raise 

His daughter on her wedding day 

Wishin' it was his hands she was holdin' 

'Till every heart that's left to break is broken 

The bullet keeps on goin' 

Oh, whoa

Line of limousines leaving one by one

Oh, mamas ain't supposed to bury their sons 

The bullet keeps on goin' 

[Partial Chorus] 

Through the son he'll never get to raise 

His daughter on her wedding day 

Wishin' it was his hands she was holdin' 

'Till every heart that's left to break is broken 

The bullet keeps on goin' 

The bullet keeps on goin'
