Spent a long long time on the road
The town is my closest friend
In town I’m the talk of the land
These folks are surely jealous of me
I’ve become something that I hate Damnation has spread to my heart and my brain
No one will even look me in the eye
It’s like I’m not even here at all
That day will come
That day will come
With a pistol in my hand, I’ll be gone
Train robberies, a stagecoach hold up, pillaging the village, setting up that trap
Pistol in your hand
I won’t be the last one standing

I should have known better not to fall in love
With how fickle this world is
and how death seems to be my friend
What I wouldn’t give not to feel your loss
I’m on the road again
I’m without my best friend
I never had the chance to tell you how I felt
You had fallen apart
I couldn’t bear to break your heart
What if I had never even heard your name
What kind of life would I have led
Would I have even shot them dead
It’s funny how you led me to a life of crime
The promises that you kept
Don’t mean nothing now that you’re dead
You had a sense of humor, you were larger than life
Now there’s a bounty on my head
they sure as hell won’t take me dead

I came on the promise that I could start a new life
The journey was weary but I still have some fight
I traveled alone so that could leave it all behind
Got an apartment on the outskirts of town
I was out drinking and I saw a bar fight
I wasn’t thinking and I just tried to stop it
I heard a gun go off and I couldn’t feel nothin
I’m on the floor now and I see that I’m bleeding
They said “what’s your name, son?
what’s your name, son?
You’re barely breathing but It’s gonna be alright.
We’ll stop the bleeding”

You cold blooded thief, you’ve taken everything
My home and my hearth, my sense of security
Your lifeless black eyes, they looked right through me
You took what you wanted, you should have felt something
I’ll hunt you down, even if it takes everything
To feel your bones break, it wouldn’t be the beginning
I feel so much hate coursing through my veins
When this all ends I’ll be a shell of a man

With a furrowed brow I trot along alone
Isolation has aged my bones
A life on the run is no life at all
These mountain trails are my only friends
My weathered hands have been failing me
Should I turn myself in, would I have a trial
Along came a man does he recognize me
Did he see my poster, does he know my price
“Don’t ask me questions about the summer
I lead a hard life and I’m tired
Friend, I don’t have time for your questions
Is that a pistol on your person?”
“What are you waiting for?”

I know that you’re worried about me losing my life
you’ll miss me
well I’ll miss you too
I’ll be writing a letter every day
to you
to tell you
That I’m coming home
It’ll be a little while now but it’ll be worth it you’ll see
I’m your strong man
Nothing will take me down
When I go into battle, I’ll keep my wits sharp
No one
Will defeat me, and we’ll win the war
I’ve been getting your letters, they’re giving me hope
I need
To leave here
I just want to be home
If I was a traitor I wouldn’t make it
To you
There’s no plan
I can’t see the way out
I know I’m not a hero I’ve seen those men
I’m not
that cruel
I couldn’t take a life
haven’t been writing letters cause they’re
they’re so hard
to pen
I can’t bear to
Let you read my pain
You’ll be getting a letter to tell you about my wounds
They’re fatal I won’t make it home
Gangrene had taken both of my legs
They tried
their best to bring me home to you

I suppose you wanted to know who I was back then
I was a sad man
I have seen the face of death
on everyone
I’ve ever known
I’ve learned how live with a life without meaning
The pain doesn’t ever go away
While I’ve enjoyed talking to you
I’ll never be close to you
you remind me of someone I knew
Look at my scars
Look into my eyes
Look at my skin
Look right through me

Just do what your father said
Be home before the sun
You don’t even know my name just
Be careful who you trust
You haven’t known these parts like I do
Move along
You say you’re a bounty hunter well
You don’t got any scruff
I may not look like much but I’m pretty good with a gun
You don’t want to step in my way
You haven’t learned the hard way
You’re not your father’s son
He’s not yours
Put down the gun
Put down the gun
Put down the gun

There were claw marks
Near the basement
I saw
Your eyes
I’ve never heard you lie
“We’ll die”
A glass of whisky
Another candle
Won’t save
Our lives
“Please Keep a steady hand”
I’ll try
Edging closer
To the corner
Oh god
Oh god
I’m frightened of what’s next
We’ll be fine
Muscles tensing
I can’t take it
Please spare
Our lives
I’m trembling in your wake
Just take me
How could you do this
You took it all
My life
My pride
I’ve got nothing left to love
Just take me
Is there meaning
In your cruelty?
Should I
Have known?
I cannot understand
Just take me
If there’s evil
Then Ive seen it
It’s stared
me down
I’m burdened with this guilt
Just take me
Oh my darling
Oh my darling
You would not
Believe
You are lost and gone forever
Just take me
