|
Once I had my heroes |
|
Once I had my dreams |
|
But all of that is changed now |
|
They've turned things inside out |
|
The truth is not that comfortable, no |
|
And mother taught us patience |
|
The virtues of restraint |
|
And father taught us boundaries |
|
Beyond which we must go |
|
To find the secrets promised us, yeah |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
That's when it all gets blown away |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
The spirit fights to find its way |
|
A friend of mine once told me |
|
His one and only aim |
|
To build a giant castle |
|
And live inside his name |
|
Cry and whispers sing in muted pain |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
That's when it all gets blown away |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
The spirit fights to find its way |
|
Tonight the sky is empty |
|
But that is nothing new |
|
Its dead eyes look upon us |
|
And they tell me we're nothing but slaves |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
(...but slaves) |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
|
That's when I reach for my revolver |
