Mission Of Burma - That's When I Reach For My Revolver Lyrics
Once I had my heroesOnce I had my dreamsBut all of that is changed nowThey've turned things inside outThe truth is not so comfortable, noAnd mother taught us patienceThe virtues of restraintAnd father taught us boundariesBeyond which we must goTo find the secrets promised us, yeahThat's when I reach for my revolverThat's when it all gets blown awayThat's when I reach for my revolverThe spirit fights to find its wayA friend of mine once told meHis one and only aimTo build a giant castleAnd live inside his nameCry and whispers sing in muted painThat's when I reach for my revolverThat's when it all gets blown awayThat's when I reach for my revolverThe spirit fights to find its wayTonight the sky is emptyBut that is nothing newIts dead eyes look upon usAnd they tell us we're nothing but slavesThat's when I reach for my revolver(...but slaves)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
