Pistol Dreams

So deep into the orchard, you will stumble

On the skins of snakes, so let me know

Your nerves will lose the road

And I will boil the curtains

To extract the drugs of springtime

But that unicorn, he stirs up as a mule

I said throw me in the fire now, come on

I said throw me in the fire now, come on

And far out on the ocean

With a colored nail I'll force the whale

We'll tattoo all our crimes across his back

Had to see him swim up to the harbor

Of the city with the shiver in the buildings as we drowned

I said "throw me in the fire now, come on"

I said "throw me in the fire now, come on"

'Cause we will paint our house with water

To have an outlet for a sigh

Oh, and as I never see the changes

I will be useless as I try

As I said, "baby, don't cry"

You said I look just like Mosiah

A cloudy night, just finding out

The wise men lost, but still they found a son

And deep into the orchard, you will lead me

By the skin of snakes to let me know

My sentence as it dries

I said "throw me in the fire now, come on"

I said "throw me in the fire now, come on"

'Cause we will paint our house with water

To have an outlet for a sigh

Oh, and as I never see the changes

I will be useless as I try

As I said, "baby, don't cry"

The colors of the water streams

Been floating through our pistol dreams a long time

And I never went to see the fall

Before the barrelled builder called, "forgive, oh me"

You said "throw me in the fire now, come on"

I said "throw me in the fire now, come on"

'Cause we will paint our house with water

To have an outlet for a sigh

Oh, and as I never see the changes

I will be useless as I try

As I said, "baby, don't you cry"
