lyrics

Slingshot
Written by Guillen

Throw my body in a slingshot, pull it back and let it go
Send me flying, make me happy, land in some place I don’t know
Maybe back down in the flint hills, why didn’t we detour
Baby, just to get away, to save all of my sanity

I’ll take my finger off the pulse, and take my eye off the prize
Goodbye, rolling concrete of my little city

As the evening staggered on, we stumbled on a sideshow
Hand in hand, just passing through, like a pair of guitars
We finally stole an escape where we can be ourselves, babe
Fallen on my knees again, a walking contradiction

I’ll take my finger off the pulse, and take my eye off the prize
Goodbye, rolling concrete of my little city
