Bill Callahan - Javelin Unlanding lyrics
rate meYou looked like worldwide Armageddon
While you slept
You looked so peaceful you scared me
Don’t die just yet and leave me
Alone, alone, alone
On this journey round the sun
And oh, Javelin! Oh, Javelin unlanding
And oh, Javelin! Oh, Javelin unlanding
Sometimes it’s hard to know when to call it an evening
See as much as we can stand, stand till we stagger
Laying all twisted together and exposed like roots on a river bank
Bam, bam, bam! The earth off its axis
The first draft’s in ashes and smeared on our faces
Oh, Javelin! Oh, Javelin unlanding
Oh, Javelin! Oh, Javelin unlanding
