I Shot an Arrow Lyrics


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 roomI had a dream too big for the worldget 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 herethe 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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Indiana's Murder by Death (formerly known as Little Joe Gould) layers the vocal sounds of an old saloon with the haunting strings of a Hungarian folk dance and the hard driving rhythms of pure rock 'n' roll, producing what Stuff magazine has called "lush, orchestrated songs," somehow simultaneously reminiscent of Johnny Cash and Radiohead. Added to that thick and intriguing sound are a series of dark and ironic lyrics, combining the mood and tone of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds with the narrative force of The Decemberists or a short story by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
