The Shot's Still Ringing

(album: Dry Kids: B-Sides 1997–2005 - 2005)

Like the sound of tapping from a sinking ship
I never thought we'd come to this such a calm and silent scene
With the shots still ringing in my ears so clearly now
Hit the brakes and we spun out no one heard a thing, no

I'm blessed if I know anything at all
If I know anything I know, I've been blessed
How long could they lead you so far from the light?
I never want to let them try

All this noise I'm nineteen, I'm twenty-two
In between I'm blessed with you rubber necking past the scene
With the shots still ringing we get up, your ghost and me
Leave behind our victory while they fight for it, no

I'm blessed if I know anything at all
If I know anything I know, I've been blessed
How long can they lead you so far from the light?
I never could leave you your only goodbye, I never want to let them ride
