Columbus Lyrics - Mary Black

(written by Billy Corgan) 

 

columbus sailed on many moons 

on a sea of hope 

i'll be back it won't be soon 

with every word I wrote 

it's gone 

 

a sentence in a dusty book 

on a spartan shelf 

the guards hold up her falling roof 

with everything they know 

it's gone/gone/gone 

 

upon the shores of avalon 

a soldier rests his head 

the birds pick up the sweetest spot 

to build their lonely nest 

it's gone/gone/gone 

it's gone/gone/gone

mother/i cried/mother/i cried 

for us/for us 

 

we pull the tree up by it's roots 

it's shade no longer full 

the fish hide in the longest reeds 

ignoring their own rules 

it's gone/gone/gone 

 

spinning a new parasol 

she gathered up the street 

they used far too much dynamite 

to bring down 300 hundred feet 

of the wheel 

 

kaleidiscopes of spinning tales 

that i'd onedaywrite 

the island fell to disrepair 

it fell right from my sight 

it's gone/gone/gone 

gone/gone/gone

for us/for us 

 

the horses dug the deeper pits 

with strength herefor not seen 

we lived for gods we cannot see 

but lived upon our wings 

it's gone/gone 

 

and everything I ever loved 

i loved way too soon 

a pauper plays his final act 

refusing to lose 

it's gone/gone/gone 

 

the men they will still hoist aglass 

to every fallen friend 

they tore the castle down so quick 

never thinking of the end 

it's gone/gone/gone 

 

mother/i cried/mother/i cried 

for us/for us 

 

the years don't need your oxygen 

they need your summer rain 

a temple to a single train 

delivered on the rust 

it's gone/gone/gone 

 

he drew the lines upon her breast 

stopping to his eye 

she stood and watched the ships come in 

passing on her left 

they're gone/gone/gone 

 

i reached for their benevolence 

cast in endless gold 

our cold is pure will to change 

when everything is sold 

it's gone/gone/gone 

gone/gone/gone 

 

mother/i cried/mother/i cried 

for us/for us
