Lee Ranaldo - Shouts lyrics

Everybody's shouting / there's shots out on the streets I can't hear the words they're saying / could these be the sacred stories? A caustic wind inside the walls Harsh words rain down upon us all Gathering a nation. I smell gasoline The misfits and creations of endless magazines False clues to what's behind the door Can you still see me at all? It was complete chaos. Rioters set two cars on fire and then I saw looters break the window. I don't know why. We weren't being aggressive towards them, nothing like that. But they eventually... they eventually pa**ed over us and that's when we were on the ground. I was just tryin' to calm her down: it was pretty scary for her, and it... it just seemed like the right thing to do. ...Hysterical They over-reacted... Aftermath: Not the type of excitement they were expecting. It happened so fast. I never expected it to turn into that situation, so quickly. Six months ago... Three weeks ago To move... To turn... Not the type of excitement they were expecting... I'll embrace you on the ground / while cameras shoot the sounds This whole world's upside down, I still can hear the shouts I'll kiss you once and then we'll crawl Will you catch me if I fall? Back to you (Like you know I always do)
