Lyrics

Many towns many faces
Seem to melt into one
I made a name for myself
At the end of a gun
I’ve played this part oh so long
I now believe it myself
I watched the clock
One more notch

He called me out a noon
Just a kid dressed in black
In less than an hour
He’ll be dead in his tracks
Wheels of faith are in motion
A tragic play in reverse
I watched the clock
One more notch

Oh what a lonely road
The winters have come and gone
I’ve seen so many things
Things that I can’t explain
I was once young and mad
Look at me I’m the last of why breed
Please look at me

If he would only listen
I’d say put down your gun
Your young and full of promise
Don’t live your life on the run
His eyes just looked through me
I know how this chapter ends
I watched the clock
One more notch

Spread peace and love
We must live as one
Don’t live on the run
Put down your gun
Don’t live in fear
There’ll be no more tears
Spread peace and love
We must live as one
