If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it?
That alright? Yeah
Give my gun away when it's loaded
That alright? Yeah, with you?
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time

It's a small crime
And I got no excuse
And is that alright? Yeah
To give my gun away when it's loaded

Is that alright? Yeah
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it?

The two singers are at the end of a terminal long-term relationship that should have been put out of its misery a long time ago. She has a new love interest but acknowledges that this place/time isn't ideal to start a new relationship. She knows the relationship will not survive and has a loaded gun to end the relationship mercifully but cannot pull the trigger, possibly because of the length of time they were together or because she feels guilty for distracting herself from the relationship's dysfunction by engaging another potential lover.
