[CHORUS]
Shoot your shot, kid
Hold on tightly in the dark
Summon courage from afar
Steady shot, kid
Disbelief from lion woes
Solila-quick to answer no
And I know, I know, I know
[VERSE]
(Worlds) A leaking sum of pain
(Pain) Keep bragging bout their gain
(Gain) Agreeing with the pack
(Pack) A life of disregarding what they're taught
(Taught) It mystifies the sight
(Sight) The demons shedding light
(Light) A vision I still lack
(Lack) A ruptured memory I haven't fought
[PRE-CHORUS]
The past is...
The past is...
The past is...
The past is...
[CHORUS]
Shoot your shot, kid
Hold on tightly in the dark
Summon courage from afar
Steady shot, kid
Overthinking what I chose
Quick to step on wayward toes
And I know, I know, I know
[VERSE]
(Hurt) Bruises yet unseen
(Seen) Impulsive inner fiend
(Fiend) The fear of coming clean
(Clean) A mind that cannot hear your worried plea
(Plea) A throne inside my head
(Head) Of questioning instead
(Stead) The function I have bred
(Bred) Unstable life, routine rigidity
[PRE-CHORUS]
The past is...
The past is...
The past is...
The past is...
[CHORUS]
Shoot your shot, kid
Hold on tightly in the dark
Summon courage from afar
Steady shot, kid
Disbelief from endless woes
So fucking quick to answer no
[OUTRO]
And I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
