[Verse 1: Stephan Jenkins]
There's a big red sky over you and I
And it's coming down, and we're pumping over ground
In desert air, I hope you'll be there
'Cause it's coming down, pumping over ground

[Verse 2: Stephan Jenkins]
I've seen car wreck kids walk away from it
I laughed from within, I know these days will end

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
It's been a long time, been a long time
To walk with the mighty
I won't be the martyr
So let me go, let me go on my own road
I said it's been a long time, been a long time
To walk with the mighty
Walk with the mighty
Let me go, let me go on my own

[Verse 3: Stephan Jenkins]
I'll make do with none, I will blame no one
Slept on packing foam, I'll make it all my home

[Refrain: Stephan Jenkins]
I'll take on anyone, I'll take on anyone
I'll take on anyone, I'll take on anyone
I'll take on, I'll take on anyone, I'll

[Break]

[Refrain: Stephan Jenkins]
I'll take on anyone, I'll take on anyone
I'll take on, I'll take on anyone
I'll take on anyone, I'll take on anyone, I'll

[Chorus: Stephan Jenkins]
It's been a long time, been a long time
To walk with the mighty
I won't be the martyr
So let me go, let me go
It's a long time, go
It's been a long time, been a long time
To walk with the mighty
I'm gonna walk with the mighty
Let me go, let me go on my own so

[Refrain: Stephan Jenkins]
I'll take on anyone
I'll take on, I'll take on anyone
I'll take on, I'll take on anyone
I'll take on anyone, I'll

[Break]

[Outro: Stephan Jenkins]
These days, they're not done
The red summer sun
These days, they're not done
The red summer sun
The red summer sun

Third Eye Blind from San Francisco Mission District Mostly guitars with other things knocking around Riffs and deep beats Lyrics are expanded in a kinda hip hop way That wrong thing you’re not supposed to say- we say it Black on Black pretty much from the beginning It took us so long to get things this way but it really feels like we are underway now Jacked on coffee we are a fabulously disorganized bunch We seek impact with friends try to surf whenever we can dirty jokes looking out for each other we have eyes and a voice so no surprise when we speak the fuck up We care about shit No sequencers no backing tracks not a DJ group We believe in the gathering power of music Guess you could say we are a motherfucking rock band Born in shadow, made of lions, loud as fuck
