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
