Hey ho, away we go, we're on the road to never Romeo and Juliet, the doctor and his case Without a plan they left the van and there were laid to waste Hey ho, away we go, we're on the road to never The priest was there with sandy hair, religion by his side He saw his law was broken, the punishment was applied Hey ho, away we go, along the road to never Hey ho, away we go, we're on the road to never |

I'm an accident, I was driving way too fast Couldn't stop though, so I let the moment last I'm for rolling, I'm for tossin' in my sleep It's not guilt though, it's not the company I keep People my age, they don't do the things I do They go somewhere while I run away with you I got my friends and I got my children too I got her love, she's got my love too I can't hear you, but I feel the things you say I can't see you, but I see what's in my way Now I'm floating, 'cause I'm not tied to the ground Words I've spoken seem to leave a hollow sound On the long plain, see the rider in the night See the chieftain, see the braves in cool moonlight Who will love them, when they take another life? Who will hold them, when they tremble from the knife? Voice-mail numbers on an old computer screen Rows of lovers parked forever in a dream Screaming sirens echoing across the bay To the old boats from the city far away Homeless heroes walk the streets of their hometown Rows of zeroes on the field that's turning brown They play baseball, they play football under lights They play card games and we watch them every night Need distraction, need romance and candlelight Need random violence, need entertainment tonight Need the evidence, want the testimony of Expert witnesses on the brutal crimes of love I was too tired to see the news when I got home Pulled the curtain, fell into bed alone Started dreaming, saw the rider once again In the doorway where she stood and watched for him (watched for him) I'm not present, I'm a drug that makes you dream I'm an Aerostar, I'm a Cutlass Supreme In the wrong lane, trying to turn against the flow I'm the ocean, I'm the giant undertow

Intro x2
At the house the door was wide open Wind blew curtains off the rod She was waiting and hoping She was praying to her god He was luckier than most men He was barely in his prime As she stood their in the doorway Her long dress flowing Would he make it this time
Solo
Over the hill in the big green country That's the place where the cancer cowboy rides Pure as the driven snow before it got him Sometimes I feel like he's all right Sometimes I feel like a piece of paper Sometimes I feel like my own name Sometimes I feel different later Sometimes I feel I feel just the same

Found love, found hate saw my mistake Broke walls of pain to walk again I saw the dream, I saw the wake We shared it all, but not the take Peace and love, Lennon's goodbye Over now, living in time Broken bell, a nursery rhyme Deserted by heroes, strangers in your own land No way to deny you, no way to deny you peace and love |

Throw your hatred down Meanwhile in the underworld the weaknesses are seen By peasants and by presidents who plan the counter-scheme Children in the schoolyard finish choosing teams Divided by their dreams while a TV screams Throw your weapons down Throw your weapons down The wheel of fortune keeps on rolling down The street that's paved with sinful plans There but for circumstance may go you or I Dressed in golden lame find a place to stay Throw your hatred down Throw your hatred down Throw your weapons down Throw your weapons down

Looking at the grave, at the scenery around you Home of the brave, sometimes they leave you like they found you Sometimes they worship you, Sometimes they tear your houses down Sometimes they comfort you, sometimes they spread your life around Nothing you can see, that they won't try to give you Land of the free, where the legend will outlive you When you earn their trust, when you are truly in danger Where greed and lust, have never been a stranger Home of the brave, that's where heroes need protection Media images slaves, live by random selection You sell your heart, but that's not the price of freedom Where things are useful, only when you need them Where will you go, when you need to make some changes Who will you love, in a world of constant strangers I'll go with you, if you want to take a hero home I'll stay behind, if you want to take a hero home Looking at the grave, At the scenery around you Home of the brave, Sometimes they leave you like they found you Home of the brave Home of the brave Home of the brave Home of the brave Home of the brave Home of the brave
