In an interview with the Blue Indian, John Mark says the following about this song:
“Napoleon is my daughter I think. It’s just about how love is hard and how love demands surrender. My daughter entered the picture very suddenly and forced me to change the way I live in order to grow up and be who...
Guns / Napoleon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You’re sinking all my ships
You’re climbing all my fences
The storm upon my gate
The breach in my defenses
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
And you keep coming on
Like Napoleon
And I’ll lose my head and throne
In the bloody revolution
[Chorus]
You fill the hollows of the halls
In the houses where I walk
You’re hanging pictures on the walls
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Love can break your bones
Broken bones sing songs
I’m laying down my guns
So I can sing along]

I don’t always know what I’m writing when I’m writing, I just see the pieces and as I’m telling the story, I don’t tell it knowing the end from beginning, I sort of discover it. So the writing pro...
