Guns / Napoleon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You’re sinking all my ships
You’re climbing all my fences
The storm upon my gate
The breach in my defenses
Like the sun against the morning
You set your face against the doors in
All the houses where I run
And I’m laying down my guns
And you keep coming on
Like Napoleon
And I’ll lose my head and throne
In the bloody revolution
You fill the hollows of the halls
In the houses where I walk
You’re hanging pictures on the walls
In the houses where I haunt
You’re standing on my harbor
You’re landing on my shore
I’m handing down my armor
I’m landing on my sword
On the brink of kingdom come
And I’m standing in the flood
Of everything I ever was
And I’m laying down my guns
And you keep coming on
Like Napoleon
And I’ll lose my head and throne
In the bloody revolution
You fill the hollows of the halls
In the houses where I walk
You’re hanging pictures on the walls
In the houses where I haunt
Love can break your bones
Broken bones sing songs
I’m laying down my guns
So I can sing along
