Chalk It Up to Utter Blindness

The Gunslinger

In days of blood I made my name,

in tears of blood I’ll face my shame.

Not one of you can face my fire

my guns blaze in midnight ire.

Another falls with sickening grace

and your life I cannot replace.

Nor do I intend to try.

Wander, fall, fire and crawl.

Bleed, fear, fire and call.

Draw faster than the Devil himself

kill fast and collect your wealth.

Walk into Hell and trash the place

walk in and kill ‘cause I see your face.

Your eyes still haunt me.

Get on your knees and bleed for me!

Get on your knees and scream for me!

Get on your knees and cry for me!

Get on your knees and die for me!

Even death can’t stop me now!

Gods will laugh as they softly cry

one by one they fall and die.

They wither and burn under midnight’s sun

as death claims them from the barrel of my gun.

In days of blood I made my name,

in tears of blood I’ll take my blame

There is nothing else left.

I’ll never give up my ghost,

and that is what will hurt me most.

As pieces of my soul burn in Hell

I cannot see how far I fell.

I’ve killed the best of all that can be

now one of you must kill me.

I cannot do it myself.
