Lyrics
And her head hangs down again?
Like a thirsty flower ? no rain?
And the minutes pass as slow as days in pain?
And she cries as loud as war?
And she prays to God, ?no more??
And her soul?s tied to her wrist ? it drags across the floor?
Put away the gun tonight ? come to bed.
Look at the stars outside ? they?re for you to see?
Don?t you know you make me happy?
And she draws a bath to cry?
And she counts the days to die?
She?s as raw as roadkill neath vultures in the sky?.
Put away the gun tonight ? come to bed.
Look at the stars outside ? they?re for you to see?
I just want you to be happy?
Put your soul in its place ? end the war; lift your face?
Pray to God, ?Send me rain,?
Cleanse yourself ? purge your pain?.
And bury the hatchet you bear ? the road ahead leads somewhere?
You could stop counting days?
You can stop inventing ways?.
You can stand tall and bloom ? find your peace in being you?.
And cherish your days alive?Wouldn?t you rather die happy?
Happy?
Happy?
