That's When I Reach For My Revolver

Graham Coxon

Once I had my heroes

Once I had my dreams

But all of that is changed now

You took things inside out

The truth is not that comfortable, no



And mother taught us patience

The virtues of restrain

And father taught us bounderies

Beyond which we must go

To find a secret promised to 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

Crying, whispering, singing from within



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

Cos their eyes look upon us

And they tell me

We're nothing but slaves



That's when I reach for my revolver, just 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
