I waited for someone to come To forgive all the things I've done But found that I was on an island in my virtue and in blood And all the voices sound the same Most of them forgot my name They sang anthems of the sycophants, and they made me take the blame I'll make the devil a deal, I'll beg, borrow and steal To get back to the place where I do not feel The nervous blood in my veins, while the rush comes in waves And I'll take a pill to wash the things in the flood away Shoot into the wild blue Maybe I'll drift back to you Bring the rains beneath the sun, Tell them, "Red the river runs." We're rogue states out in the desert Shouldn't have given up the guns I'm just a dying man now No more castle nor crown I'm just glad that I made my mother proud And sorry, father, for how we can't find common ground I guess your tunnel vision is going to drag you down Shoot into the wild blue Maybe I'll drift back to you ♪ I've had a thousand vivid dreams None of them are what they seem Float on forever, into the nether I heard a whisper in the dark They're going to try and take your spark We'll give them hell together Shoot into the wild blue Maybe I'll drift back to you
