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

The knowledge we must go

I'm trying 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

The 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 nothing

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
