The Catherine Wheel - That's When I Reach For My Revolver Lyrics
Once I had my heroesOnce I had my dreamsBut all of that is changed nowGets twisted, inside outThe truth is not so comfortable, no, noAnd mother taught us patienceThe virtues of restraintAnd father taught us boundariesIn honor we must goThe vanity will colour us, yeahThat's when I reach for my revolverThat's when it all gets blown awayThat's when I reach for my revolverThat feeling passes by this wayA friend of mine once told meHis one and only aim To build a giant castle And in it sign his nameThe silence whispers me and you in chains That's when I reach for my revolverThat's when it all gets blown away That's when I reach for my revolver That feeling passes by this wayYeahAnd now the sky is emptyBut that is nothing newThe dead eyes look upon usAnd they tell me we're nothing but thingsThat's when I reach for my revolver (but things)That's when I reach for my revolverThat's when I reach for my revolverThat's when I reach for my revolverThat's when I reach for my revolverThat's when I reach for my revolver
