How The West Was Won And Where It Got Us Lyrics - New Adventures In Hi-fi - Rem

Blood from a stone 

Water from wine 

Born under earplay design 

A stroke of bad luck, 

Wrong place, wrong time 

This flyer is out of the lime 

(chorus) 

The story is a sad one, told many times 

The story of my life in trying times 

Just add water, stir in lime 

How the west was won and where it got us

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Canary got trapped, the uranium mine 

A stroke of bad luck, now the bird has died 

A marker to mark where my tears run dry 

I cross it, bless it, alkali 

(repeat chorus) 

I didn't wear glasses cause I thought it might rain 

Now I can't see anything 

I made a mistake, chalked it up to design 

I cracked through time, space, Godless and dry 

I point my nose to the northern star, 

Watch the decline from a hazy distance 

(repeat chorus)
