Moby - 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
The truth begins again
The truth is not that comfortable, no
Mother taught us patience
The virtues of restraint
Father taught us boundaries
The knowledge we must go
I'm trying to protect my unity

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 passes by this way

A friend of mine once told me
His one and only aim
To build a giant castle
And in it sign his name
Sign it with complete community

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 passes by this way

Now that the sky is empty
And that is nothing new
Instead they look upon us
When they tell me
That we're nothing
I say!

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 passes by this way

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 passes by this way

  2. M.... P....

    Not as good as the original, but I never knew Moby made good music...

  3. B.... P....

    Get that duct tape off that guitar

  4. B.... m....

    Great song! Reminds me of Stiff Little Fingers.

  5. N.... H....

  7. D.... A....

    [Verse 1]
    Once I had my heroes
    And 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!

    [Verse 2]
    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

    [Hook]
    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

    [Verse 3]
    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
    Yeah

    [Hook]
    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

    [Verse 4]
    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
    Just 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

    Moby messed the lyrics up badly, completely obliterating the meaning of the song -- but MoB eventually forgave him.
