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