The Regulator

[Verse 1]
Oh, I see that lantern
Trimmed low, burning in our home
And though I feel like crying
I swear, tonight, I'll cry no more

[Pre-Chorus]
And how many times (How many times, how many times)
Have I prayed (Have I prayed, have I prayed)
That I would get lost (That I would get, that I would get lost)
Along the way? (Along the way, along the way)

[Chorus]
Dream with the feathers of angels stuffed beneath your head
The Regulator, swinging pendulum
Dream with the feathers of angels stuffed beneath your head
The Regulator, swinging pendulum

[Post-Chorus]
Come with me and walk the longest mile
Come with me and walk the longest mile

[Verse 2]
Is his wallet leather? Is his wallet fat?
For not a year later, it's got you lying on your back
You should have closed your windows and got another dog
You should have chained up all the doors and switched up all the locks

[Pre-Chorus]
And how many times
Have I prayed
The angels
Would speed me away?

[Chorus]
Dream with the feathers of angels stuffed beneath your head
The Regulator, swinging pendulum
Dream with the feathers of angels stuffed beneath your head
The Regulator, swinging pendulum

[Post-Chorus]
Come with me and walk the longest mile
Come with me and walk the longest mile
Come with me and walk the longest mile
Come with me and walk the longest mile
