Lyrics Murder by Death

Murder by Death

I Shot an Arrow

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

I had a dream too big for the world

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

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 your plate

It's just a lie

I shot an arrow into the dark

I shot an arrow that missed its mark

I shot an arrow!
