From the Back of the Film Songtext

von Thrush Hermit

From the back of the film
He said, "Shut up or I'll shoot you"
You look so good with a gun
But your hat doesn't suit you

If I were fearless, I'd take a bullet
And impress my friends
But who's impressed when I get so depressed?
I'm alone at the cinema again

When I was 17
I took a trip with my family
We drove around in a van
We spent some time in some cities

Went to Seattle, the Rocky Mountains
And the Potato State
But how do you feel when you're behind the wheel
And a swerve can control your fate?

Fate is all I've got
Someday I will get caught
I'm overcome with fear
I can no longer steer
Should you want to stick around
You know where I am found

From the back of the film
He said, "Shut up or I'll shoot you"
You look so good with a gun
But your hat doesn't suit you

If I were fearless, I'd take a bullet
And impress my friends
But who's impressed when I get so depressed?
I'm alone at the cinema again
