[Verse 1] Baby, I’ve got a bad wander lust Probably cuz I’m trying to get a head rush The white ponies come to tie me down But they don’t know I want them now I’m covered in my own desire And that reminder won’t make me cower I’m hungry for the flash of white For numbness in the cold of night
[Chorus] Baby, it’s that wonder dust Got me aching to get a head rush I know they are coming to get me Coming to get me, the ******* cavalry I know pain comes when they are gone I know it’s wrong, but it has been too long I’ve got my arms spread open wide For them to come and jump inside They’re coming to get me Coming to get me The ******* Cavalry
[Verse 2] I know what they want, and I can’t wait Their bittersweet tang I long to taste They will be here when I die But at least I will be riding high The cavalry won’t stop until My nose is packed, my brain is filled I can’t wait until that last day When all the pain has gone away
[Verse 3] I know you don’t see me like this But it would be my dying wish For my mind to fly upon white doves And reach the place so far above My face will never feel the pain For the cavalry will have done its thing They medicated all my soul And now I’ll never feel the cold

These lyrics have music to them, I will try to post the acapella version onto my myspace soon.
