Somewhere Down The Barrel

Somewhere from the mortar, they saved you from far away labels
Eternity means nothing but a sign on a bridge
When everyones a stranger, they call for you by your first name
And laugh at jokes you once made when you were a kid

Somewhere down the barrel, lies a bullet that I cant keep
And in these waters I'm wading for a reason
After all, its in my head, Im not a slave to a desperate lust
And in these waters I'm waiting for a reason after all

Screaming limitations fall silent on New York corners
A terrorists a prisoner, and a tourist a thief
When paintings seem like bargains but theyre nothing but wallpaper
I'm plagued by small town fascists like a rash on my skin

Somewhere down the barrel, lies a bullet that I cant keep
And in these waters I'm wading for a reason
After all, its in my head, Im not a slave to a desperate lust
And in these waters I'm waiting for a reason after all, after all, after all
