emma blowgun's last stand

goodness knows its been a wonderful run
the ion lakes with the children that swarm
you mother’s convictions and your father’s protections
don’t seem so insane
they laugh and say your treasures are fake
but don’t throw it away

and you’ve been framed with a beautiful name
and you’ve been saved but you lost your head
with halos and friends the trinity saves but three’s a crowd
you flirt you drink
you can’t stop your winking
at the boys at the bar

all you need is a gun and a car
a country song if you don’t have the heart
my cowboys and indians and the falls and aminions
where the highways are far
when all you know your shadow’s a ghost
don’t let it scare you away

on to calm go the wild seas
