Pistol Dreams

So deep into the orchard you will stumble on the skin of snakes
So let me know your nerves, we'll lose the road
And I will boil the curtains to extract the drugs of springtime
But the unicorn, it stirs up as a mule

I said throw me in the fire now, c'mon
I said throw me in the fire now, c'mon

And far out on the ocean with a colored nail, I'll force the whale
We'll tattoo all our crimes across his back
Can't you see him swim up to the harbor of the city
With the shiver in our buildings as we drown?

I said throw me in the fire now, c'mon
I said throw me in the fire now, c'mon

'Cause we will paint our house with water
To have an outlet for the sigh
And as I never see the changes
I will be useless as I try
As I say 'baby, don't cry'

You said I look just like Messiah on a cloudy night just findin' 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 they dry

I said throw me in the fire now, c'mon
I said throw me in the fire now, c'mon

'Cause we will paint our house with water
To have an outlet for the sigh
And as I never see the changes
I will be useless as I try
As I say 'baby, don't cry'

The colors of the water streams
Been floatin' through our pistol dreams a long time
And I never went to see the fall before the barrel builder call
Forgive, oh me

You said throw me in the fire now, c'mon
I said throw me in the fire now, c'mon

'Cause we will paint our house with water
To have an outlet for the sigh
And as I never see the changes
I will be useless as I try
As I say 'baby, don't you cry'
