lyrics

We got off to a bad start.
Didn’t even notice that your heart
Was laying there on the blacktop
Just twitching with no sign it could stop

We got off to bad start.
We don’t know all the lines but we play the part
Makin cases to bruise hearts
Never broken but not filled to the top.

Get away from the stray gunfire, babe
You could stay, make a change but it’s still a shame.
On the train up in flames til the last stop
We got off to a bad start

We got off to a bad start
Take a minute and let think how this could smart.
It’ll do more than leave a mark
Change the picture for everyone involved
But it could for some great art
You know it and I know it

Get away from the stray gunfire, babe
You could stay, make a change but it’s still a shame.
On the train up in flames til the last stop
We got off to a bad start
