[Verse] The sun it sank like blood on the hill My shaking hands they never felt so still He drew first I swore by the moonlight's glow But his eyes haunt me everywhere I go [Chorus] I didn’t want to take his breath away But the devil laughed and begged me to stay The dirt turned red beneath his fall And now I can’t outrun it all [Verse 2] The whiskey burns but it don’t cleanse the sin I see his shadow where mine should have been The trigger’s pull still echoes in my mind A clock that ticks but won’t rewind [Chorus] I didn’t want to take his breath away But the devil laughed and begged me to stay The dirt turned red beneath his fall And now I can’t outrun it all [Bridge] The crows they circle high and wide They know the truth I try to hide My soul’s a grave I can’t unmake A heavy price for choices I can’t shake [Verse 3] Each sunrise burns with a cruel disdain Each sunset bleeds and it screams his name A man who lives but has lost his soul Carries the weight of a bullet’s toll
