Somewhere Down The Barrel - Lyrics

Title: Somewhere Down The Barrel
Artist: The Dissociatives
Composer(s): Paul F Mcdermott, Daniel Johns

Lyric:
Somewhere from the mortar, they saved you from far away labels
Eternity means nothing but a sign on a bridge
When everyone?s 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 can?t keep
And in these waters I'm wading for a reason
After all, it?s in my head, I?m 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 terrorist?s a prisoner, and a tourist a thief
When paintings seem like bargains but they?re 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 can?t keep
And in these waters I'm wading for a reason
After all, it?s in my head, I?m not a slave to a desperate lust
And in these waters I'm waiting for a reason after all, after all, after all
