Vashti Bunyan Gunpowder
[Verse 1]
It seems however hard I try
The words that I let fly out of my mouth
Don't ever say what I want them to say
[Verse 2]
It seems that I can never learn my words
Watching them turn around, burning
Lighting the gunpowder trails that you lay
[Bridge]
I blow my chances
And you throw the years out
With all the merry dances
You led me, you led me
[Verse 3]
I should look for a shed somewhere
Keep my words in the air, padlocked there
Forever and silently out of harm's way
