On My Way Home

lyrics

I met her on my way home
She had a gun in her hand and a smile that said
"Be careful dear,
Don't wish for what you fear.
My only purpose is to see him in the ground
Without a sound.
He caused this misery and nothing's surely stopping me from trying."

She don't feel so well,
The ceiling fan reminds her of a Ferris wheel;
It's fine if you sit still.
Whistling blue from the kettle
Reminds me of you.
She's sure to hit the floor
Before she sees the border or the law.

A flicker of life still glows,
It's hard to know when to fight
Or just to let things go.
You never really know.

I met her on my way home,
She had a gun in her hand and a smile that said
"Be careful dear,
Don't wish for what you fear.
My only purpose is to see him in the ground
Without a sound.
He caused this misery and nothing's surely stopping me from trying."
