Cherry picking through the stars
and falling cannonballs
waiting for the break of dawn
to start its morning crawl
polluted rays of filtered light
tropical and warm
making shadows through
the snow white resin covered skulls
happy birthday to the war
standing by the wall
a rainbow made of stars
under seven difference shades of grey
spreading out across the arc
days of wonder spent
out there killing time
now this may not leave a mark on me
but I sure as hell was there
caravanning on the moonlit
locust covered trail
we came out like a stream of bats
exploding from the well
slipping through the whirlpools
of trees and floating cars
behind winter coated mule
down record breaking falls
into olblivions open jaws
standing by the wall
a rainbow made of stars
under seven difference shades of grey
spreading out across the arc
days of wonder spent
out there killing time
now this may not leave a mark on me
but I sure as hell was there
happy birthday to the war
days of wonder spent
by a rainbow made of stars
under seven different shades of grey
spreading out across the arc
standing by the wall
out there killing time
now this may not leave a mark on me
but I sure as hell was there
educated under God
to walk a neutral line
give me neither poverty
nor riches in my time
take my body and my mind
my heart is far behind
with one dozen poems in my ears
ricocheting wild

The Wallflowers sono un gruppo rock statunitense formatosi a Los Angeles, California, negli anni '90. Il gruppo è guidato da Jakob Dylan, figlio del leggendario cantautore Bob Dylan. Sebbene abbia ereditato la profonda liricità vocale del padre, Jakob ha intrapreso una strada musicale diversa, esplorando sonorità rock più ampie e influenzate dal folk americano. Il loro album di debutto, *Bringing Down the Horse*, pubblicato nel 1996, è diventato un successo internazionale grazie al singolo *One Headlight*. Altri brani rappresentativi includono *6th Avenue Heartache* e *The Difference*. The Wallflowers hanno continuato a pubblicare musica negli anni successivi, mantenendo una solida base di fan e ricevendo riconoscimenti per la loro musica autentica e il sound rock ricco di emozioni.
