Bishop Allen - The Bullet and Big D lyrics

On monday dealey plaza fills with people on the way to the court houses and meeting rooms but me, I'm free today And I traced the path the motorcade took back in sixty-three past the gra**y knoll into the book depository they put in a museum where they say the shots were fired it's closed today but I don't mind I'm already getting tired There's photographs and headlines and diagrams of the street they're showing the zapruder film it's always on repeat last night I dreamt I was the bullet from frame 313 the one that scattered his head around the limosine I was right there for his final thoughts, of john-john and jackie and oh my God Big D Back then everybody worried further to the south missles screamed across Miami, trail and fall out Teachers drilled their students hiding underneath their desks To fear the twitchy trigger finger, of old Krushchev but Cuba couldn't k** nobody, not like Dallas could when I was growing up there, I understood Remember when I'd pick you up outside your mothers house? the two of you were fighting, and we promised we'd get out out far from the narrowness and the confines and the doubt we'd leave behind all that we know and never turn around cut the strings and tear away from all that kept us down and oh my god big D Now I fly out of Laguardia, or out of JFK and I land at DFW and I drive down LBJ and the houses and the shopping centers, don't make me afraid Why they ever did, it's hard now to explain But you, you never really left, for you was it the same? and oh my god Big D November 22nd I was at the kitchen sink Just like everyone remembers where they were in ‘63 the shudder that shot through me with that unexpexted call I locked the bathroom door and hit my fist against the wall I should of come to rescue you, I should have should have yes What happened in the past ten years, I coulda guessed Remember when I would carry you, and lay you in your bed and promised to take care of you, but I just left instead Last night I dreamt I was the pills you swallowed down I tried to come back up, but you wouldn't let me out and I couldn't help but wonder, did think of me? and oh my god big D
