"Celebration Guns" lyrics
"Celebration Guns"
So tomorrow there will be another number
For the one who had a name
A desert wind and a perverse desire to win
History buried in shame
Are the beating drums
Celebration guns
The thunder and the laughter
The last thing they remember
Are the beating drums
Celebration guns
The thunder and the laughter
The last thing they remember
And then the next day, how will you know your enemy
By their colour or your fear
One by one you can cage them in your freedom
Make them all disappear
Six-hundred sixty-six hundred sixty days
Two guards, for one uncharged
This morning's paper's ink stains my fingers
My hands grow darker everyday
Are the beating drums
Celebration guns
The thunder and the laughter
The last thing they remember
Are the beating drums
Celebration guns
The thunder and the laughter
The last thing they remember
Are the beating drums
Celebration guns
The thunder and the laughter
The last thing they remember
Are the beating drums
Celebration guns
The thunder and the laughter
The last thing they remember
Goodnight, sleep light, stranger
Goodnight, sleep light, stranger
Goodnight, sleep light, stranger
Thanks to [siff] for adding these lyrics.

Tennis - "Marathon" Coconut Grove
Is a very small cove
Separated from the sea
By a shifting shoal
We didn't realize that
We had arrived
At high tide, high tide
Barely made it out alive
Red over white
Fishermen...
The New Pornographers - "The Bleeding Heart Show" I leapt across three or four beds into your arms
Where I had hidden myself somewhere in your charm
Our golden handshake has been smashed into this shape.
It's taken magic to a primitive new place...
Bright Eyes - "We Are Nowhere And It's Now" If you hate the taste of wine
Why do you drink it 'til you're blind?
And if you swear that there's no truth and who cares
How come you say it like you're right?
Why are you scared to dream of god...
Pinback - "Loro" And the Ripped Ones say goodbye,
While the others meet.
Attached somewhere.
At least they're shared.
And the Ripped Ones never collide,
While the others...While the others...
While the others...
da...
Rilo Kiley - "More Adventurous" Hm, it wasn't that rad
And it's only doubts that we're counting on fingers broken long ago
I read with every broken heart, we should become more adventurous
And if you banish me from your profits...
