Shoot High, Aim Low Songtext / Lyric

We hit the blue fields

In the blue sedan we didn't get much further

Just as the sun was rising in the mist

We were all alone, we didn't need much more



So fast this expedition, so vast this heavy load

With a touch of luck and a sense of need



Seeing the guns and their faces

We looked around the open shore

Waiting for something



Shoot high, break low

Aim high, shoot low

Break high, let go

Shoot high, aim low



This was to be our last ride

With the steel guitar and the love you give me

Underneath the skin, a feeling, a breakdown

Well, we sat for hours on the crimson sand



Exchanges in the currency, of humans bought and sold

And the leaders seem to lose control






Shall we lose ourselves for a reason?

Shall we burn ourselves for the answer?

Have we found the place that we're looking for?

Someone shouted, "Open the door"

Look out!



Shoot high, break low

Aim high, shoot low

Feeling of imagination

Break high, let go

Shoot high, aim low



(Shoot high, aim low)

Nothing you can say

(Shoot high, let go)

Takes me by surprise

(Shoot high, aim low)



Who says's there's got to be a reason

(Shoot high, let go)

Who says there's got to be an answer?

(We were all alone, we didn't need much more)



Shoot high, aim low

(The sun's so hard on this endless highway)

Shoot high, let go

Shoot high, aim low



Shoot high, let go

Shoot high, let go

(I've heard the singers who sing of love)

Shoot high, let go

(In the blue sedan we never got much further)

Shoot high, aim low
