Cannons

In that old boxcar with the pentagram where the kids all used to hide

I left my best bracelets there for the scavengers to find

But when i come back last May

The boxcar was cut down

But the smooth scarred boy with ravaging eyes was still hanging around

And it was just as i had dreamed it

When we walked along those tracks

Pulling the sparks from an orphaned rainbow

That turned our eyes to black

And then we said

The people we see as skeletons we all know by name

The people we see as skeletons we all know by name

The people we see as skeletons we all know by name

The people we see as skeletons we all know by name

I'm at the top of a hill

Receiving signals

That go

I'm going back to that place

And if one day you draw a microphone that makes the radio sing

I'll paint a portal through space

And cut the cherry cloth born from a string i'll carry everything

Then i'll track you through the alleys and the hours on the trampoline of time

And then i'll take

The cannons in the park and point them straight into your heart

The cannons in the park and point them straight into your heart

The cannons in the park and point them straight into your heart

The cannons in the park and point them straight into your heart

Heart

Heart

Heart

Heart
