[Intro]
"How many drivers does a buggy have?
One
So let's just say, I'm driving this buggy
And if you fix your attitude, you can ride along with me
Okay

[Verse 1]
You shouted loud
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

[Refrain]
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I'm titanium

[Verse 2]
You cut me down, but it's you who'd have further to fall
Ghost town and haunted love
You raise your voice, sticks and stones may break my bones
I'm talking loud not saying much

[Refrain]
I'm bulletproof
Nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I'm titanium

[Interlude]
Now you will see me one more time... if you do good
You will see me two more times... if you do bad

[Verse 1]
You shouted loud, but I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud not saying much
I'm criticized, but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

[Refrain]
I'm bulletproof nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I'm titanium

[Outro]
Goodnight

Bastille

Bastille is a British indie pop band. After releasing a limited single in 2010 and the Laura Palmer EP in 2011, the band was signed to Virgin Records. Following their signing, the band released two mix-tapes – Other People’s Heartache and Other People’s Heartache Pt. 2 — for free. In an interview with The Guardian, Dan Smith discussed the

Someone recently said to ‘The mixtapes were very clever, was that the label’s idea?’ Actually the label were completely against it; we were stealing and sampling illegally left, right and centre. The label ‘We want nothing to do with this.’ When it came to hosting the mixtapes, I had to register the website myself.

Preceding the release of their debut album, Bad Blood, the band released several singles — “Overjoyed”, “Bad Blood” and “Flaws”— to moderate commercial success. In February 2013, the band was catapulted into the charts by the album’s fourth single, “Pompeii”. The song was a commercial hit, going up to 5x Platinum around the world. In June 2014, “Pompeii” was confirmed to be the United Kingdom’s most streamed song ever. Unfortunately, it has since been overtaken.
