And hope for grace
Take my place
There's a war outside
We should all get high
And give a kiss goodbye
There's just nowhere to run
On a 747 in a blood-moon sky
I heard a baby in the rear of the plane start to cry
I saw panic on the faces of people that fly
I'm just waiting for a beverage to accompany my pie
And when the fish grow wings
And the moon can sing
Oh baby, I'll come clean
There's just nowhere to run
Look at me, I'll go down a mystery
Are we still having fun?
Oh, when I leave you'll come chasing after me
On display only, I said look don't touch
But I peaked too early and I didn't miss much
Somebody somewhere is doing their best
And we all don't know what to make of this mess
It's a video game
And it's all the same
And it hurts your brain
Just nowhere to run
Favor me, I'll go down a mystery
Are we still having fun?
Oh yes, we'll see if you're ride or die for me
I don't know where my mind is taking me
I only know my fear of falling
All of the roads that closed are opening
I only like to drive the backstreets
Just nowhere to run
Wait and see, I'll go down a mystery
Are we still having fun?
Oh, when I leave you'll come chasing after me
Just nowhere to run
Oh, we've been played, I got pride inside of me
Are we still having fun?
Oh, when I'm free you can ride or die for me
Kings of Leon is an American rock band formed in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1999. The band includes brothers Caleb, Nathan, and Jared Followill and their cousin Matthew Followill.

After the release of Only by the Night in September 2008, the band achieved chart success in the United States. The singles "Sex on Fire", "Use Somebody", and "Notion" all peaked at number one on the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart.
