It was a wild idea to start We were lost in an hour, everything came apart In the middle of nowhere Oh man, hey look where we are I know your teeth are shut and proud But there are rhythms in the city make your head feel loud Uh-huh So get it out, get it out You are a long ways upriver from home Right here this water is mean, but it's the same as your own Better swim for your life It's both at the same time It was a wild idea to start A drip on the head got it wet in the heart And it looked just like a river but was a freeway in the dark In the dark Were you always so ready? Were you always so ready? I never want to call it off I never want to call it off I've never been that ready I've never been this ready In my life
