[Verse 1] Tires burnin' in the backyard Smoke risin' on the plains Girl's singing that stupid song again The thunder makes an awful din Street fills in like a tomb Folks seek shelter, but there's no room
[Pre-Chorus] I had a dream too big for the world
[Chorus] Get me out of here Take me to the edge of town To the underground It can't be that far Get me out of here Doesn't matter where I don't care Anywhere but here
[Verse 2] The food lines wind and shiver and shake What's it gonna take to get by? And this weave of events fools attribute to fate Is like calling bones meat 'cause they're on a plate It's just a lie
[Pre-Chorus] + [Chorus]
[Bridge] I shot an arrow into the dark I shot an arrow that missed its mark I shot an arrow!
