That's When I Reach For My Revolver Lyrics

Once I had my heroes
Once I had my dreams
But all of that is changed now
They've turned things inside out
The truth is not that comfortable, no

And mother taught us patience
The virtues of restraint
And father taught us boundaries
Beyond which we must go
To find the secrets promised us, yeah

That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
The spirit fights to find its way

A friend of mine once told me
His one and only aim
To build a giant castle
And live inside his name
Cry and whispers sing in muted pain

That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
The spirit fights to find its way

Tonight the sky is empty
But that is nothing new
Its dead eyes look upon us
And they tell me we're nothing but slaves

That's when I reach for my revolver
(...but slaves)
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver

I know what true love feels like thanks to Mission of Burma. I still can't believe what I saw. I hope you are like me and.........

I had the pleasure to see them on their first reunion tour in Seattle in 2002 and they were awesome. They still play around - truly worth it.

'Revolver' still has a timelessness to it, 23 some odd years later.

Can't believe no one has commented on this song yet, as it truly kicks ass! Burma rocked during their short yet shiny career, but Revolver lived on and on. It's one of the greatest rock songs of all times!

All times are in Greenwich Mean Time.
The time is now 21:38:26.
