Somewhere Down The Barrel Lyrics - Singles - The Dissociatives

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
