Lyrics

I don't ever want to die
Do you know this arrow when it arches high
To meet the eagle in the sky?

The eagle flies using the river as a map
A small animal in its clasp
Alive and enjoying the ride
Is life a ride to ride
Or a story to shape and confide
Or chaos neatly denied?

And some people find the taste of Pilgrim guts to be too strong
Me, I find I can't get by without them for too long
Tear at the flesh
Tear at the bone
Of anyone who tells you the known is unknown
'Cause life ain't confidential
No, no, no
It's not
It isn't and it ain't
Confidential
No, no, no

I ride my arrow
I ride my arrow
Ride my arrow
Ride my arrow

The land I love is splitting in two
Again
And again and again
War muddies the river
And getting out we're dirtier than getting in

I ride my arrow
I ride my arrow
Ride my arrow
Ride my arrow
