The Shot Heard 'Round the World lyrics

I used to hide away at home to try to save myself

From falling in love or staying up on the shelf

I was afraid to walk to streets alone or by your side

Just waiting up for something that could save my life

But there’s no way out stuck inside my head now

Headed for a breakdown when I should be headed for the door

‘Cause I found out there’s no such thing as a miracle

No, you can’t hide — it’s the shot heard ‘round the world

Lights out, there’s no such thing as a miracle

Baby, don’t cry — it’s the shot heard ‘round the world

If we could light up every street with our cellular phones

Then maybe we can save ourselves or maybe we won’t

But it doesn’t even matter if we got a plan

As long as you’re holding on to somebody’s hand

Because the way out’s stuck inside your head now

But I know we can break out if we can all just step outside the door

‘Cause I found out there’s no such thing as a miracle

No, you can’t hide — it’s the shot heard ‘round the world

Lights out, there’s no such thing as a miracle

Baby, don’t cry — it’s the shot heard ‘round the world

I’m gonna kiss the sky tonight

Maybe you should try it

I’m gonna learn to fly tonight

And you’re invited

'Cause all the things that we’ve become

Are making me so fucking numb

And this time I have had enough

Goodbye, and say hello to the end of the world

‘Cause I found out there’s no such thing as a miracle

No, you can’t hide — it’s the shot heard ‘round the world

Lights out, there’s no such thing as a miracle

Baby, don’t cry — it’s the shot heard ‘round the world
