Lonely The Brave - Backroads Lyrics
Saw things that the rat sawAnd my eyes couldn't take them inJust want to fall here silentlyInto the arms of people I loveUnder waiting stars as the ships come rolling inBut look at the way the faces turnEyes burn why (eyes burn why)If you be the sky then I'll be the birdBut look at the way the faces turnEyes burn why (eyes burn why)If you be the sky then I'll be the birdSo the power lines were leaningAnd all was lostMake a vow with the city lightsWith your fingers crossedYou said I'd be a place and timeSaid I'd be a manMaking eyes with a sea of liesSo you understandThat you're raping on my dreamingAnd you're ruining my best made plansThe rat he turned and bared his teeth at youThe wake is calling, what you gonna do?But your head's goneAnd it won't be longThe rat he turned and bared his teeth at youThe wake is calling, what you gonna do?But your head's goneAnd it won't be longSo the sinners stopped and the villains turnedAnd I'll be the sky and you be the birdLet's meet the mountains and see what they heardAnd I'll be the sky and you be the birdAnd I'll be the sky and you be the bird (x4)
