That's When I Reach for My Revolver

Once I had my heroes, once I had my dreams

But all of that is changed now, the truth begins again

The truth is not that comfortable, no

Mother taught us patience, the virtues of restraint

Father taught us boundaries of knowledge we must goal

I'm tryin' to protect my unity

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 passes by this way

A friend of mine once told me his one and only aim

To build a giant castle and in it sign his name

Sign it with complete community

That's when I reach for my revolver

That's when it all gets blown away

That's when I reach for my revolver

Her spirit passes by this way

Now that the sky is empty and that is nothing new

Instead they look upon us when they tell me

That we're nothin'

I say 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 passes by this way

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 passes by this way
