If it is "my gun", it could be "my trigger", a case of artistic license when the lyrics were written or performed. The Lyrics (with a comma after Mama) "Mama, just killed a man / Put a gun against his head / Pulled my trigger, now he's dead." A Possible Interpreation The actual lyric in the licensed sheet music starts "Mama just killed a man" -- with no comma after "Mama." One possible reading that explains "my trigger" is that both the narrator and Mama are responsible. Mama killed the man by putting the gun against his head and setting off the narrator, who does the actual killing ("pulled my trigger" being roughly analogous to causing him to do something by "pushing his buttons"). Perhaps someone caused the narrator to kill another person, or a relationship with another person, or even a part of himself. This reading might make sense for a lyricist who compartmentalized his ethnicity and sexuality.

They are both correct grammar. The trigger is on the gun. My trigger has a light trigger pull.

What is something you admire about coldplay?

As a longtime Coldplay fan, and an alternative rock fan, I love the melody in Coldplay's music. Songs like Clocks, Viva la Vida, The Scientist. I also like the lyrics, most songs by the group are abstract, and the listener decides the meaning. The abstract lyrics remind me of the epic "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen.
