Bullets Lyrics - Whispers - Passenger

Well he's been collecting since the age of nine 

Every shiny bullet that he could find 

Built himself a house with the wooden floors 

Put the shiny bullets in a chest of drawers 

Well his wife's long gone and the kids have grown 

And trees they fall down on their own 

Memories fade like an old slideshow 

But the bullets still shine like coins in the snow 

Well one day took himself into town 

The men with a truck well they came around 

Took the television and the gun from the war 

And almost every bullet from the chest of drawers

Well he came back home and found the house in a mess 

Run into the bedroom and the old brown chest 

Didn't care much for the VCR 

But he cried for the space where the bullets were 

The men drove the truck down into town 

And sold all the silver they had found 

But they couldn't sell the bullets cause they weren't live rounds 

So they dug a big hole put the bullets in the ground 

Photos 

Now he doesn't leave the house much anymore 

Cause the men are gonna come like they did before 

And he'll hold onto the three or four 

Bullets that they left in the chest of drawers 

Oh yeah the bullets that they left in the chest of drawers
