Spreading out across the arc
This may not leave a mark on me
My heart is far behind
Polluted rays of filtered light
Ricocheting wild
To walk a neutral line
Days of wonder spent
But I sure as hell was there
Take my body and my mind
Happy birthday to the war
Standing by the wall
Under seven different shades of gray
Standing by the wall
Out there killing time
Under seven different shades of gray
Of trees and floating cars
Into oblivion's open jaws
Behind the winter coated mule
Now take my body and my mind
Nor riches in my time
A rainbow made of stars
(Days of wonder)
Educated under God
This may not leave a mark on me
Spreading out across the arc
Exploding from the well
A rainbow made of stars
Days of wonder
(Days of wonder)
Days of wonder spent
Days of wonder spent
Happy birthday to the war
Tropical and warm
Caravanning on the moonlit
Making shadows through the snow white
Spreading out across the arc
Resin covered skulls
Out there killing time
Now give me neither poverty
With one dozen poems in my ears
Locust covered trail
(Days of wonder)
We came out like a stream of bats
Under seven different shades of gray
Out there killing time
To start its morning crawl
By a rainbow made of stars
But I sure as hell was there
But I sure as hell was there
(Days of wonder)
Down the record breaking falls
This may not leave a mark on me
My heart is far behind
My heart is far behind
Slipping through the whirlpools
Standing by the wall
Waiting for the break of dawn
