"Shot In The Dark" lyrics
"Shot In The Dark"
Me and my friends
We used to fall apart
And piece ourselves back together like a work of art
Mom was a mess
She took it way too hard
I left it tucked in the drawer like a birthday card
How would I know
When these days just come and go
How would I know
That we would make it this far
From just a shot in the dark
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark (Hey hey in the dark)
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark
The greatest thing to ever befall on me
I saw your sister and begged her to set me free
Ten years have passed of what should be eternity
I still wake up and think that this is what life should be
And yet
How could I know
When these days just come and go
Oh how would I know
I'd get all this love
From just a shot in the dark
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark (Hey hey in the dark)
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark (Hey in the dark)
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark (Hey hey in the dark)
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark
Lived my whole life like I was ready to die
Till I finally caught a piece of the sun
With every page it's getting harder to name each
Street sign I used to pass by
At night when I'd leave your place
And I can't remember your face
Half as much as I remember our fate
I've tried to hold on but it's just a shame how
Time flies, plans die
And we only get one try
Me and my friends
We used to fall apart
And piece ourselves back together like a work of art
How could I know
When these days just come and go
Oh how would I know
I'd get all this love
From just a shot in the dark
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark (Hey hey in the dark)
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark (Hey in the dark)
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark (Hey hey in the dark)
Ooh ah
I'm gonna take a shot

You and your friend in the front booth

Brushed clean three metal tiles

I can barely play this thing
But you never seem to mind
And you tell me to fuck off

I know every word they say.
I know how they want to make you change.
Change if you want, but don't you go and change for me
