The Switch And The Spur |
| In the heat of the desert sun, |
| On the blistering trail |
| An appaloosa and, |
| A wanted man sprung from jail |
| Slow in motion and shadow-less |
| The switch and the spurs |
| Every living thing, with a fatal sting |
| Bark and rattle this curse |
| The rider hallucinates |
| The snapping hooves on the sand |
| Spits a venom dream, recalls a stranger scream |
| And a broken hand… |
| The saddle spotted with sweat and blood |
| The poison pumps through his veins |
| There’s no stopping this, and now he’s powerless |
| Still holding the reigns… |
| Any pour souls who trespass against us Whether it be beast or man |
| Will suffer the bite or be stung dead on sight |
| By those who inhabit this land |
| For there’s is the power and this is the kingdom |
| As sure as the sun does burn |
| So enter this path, but heed these four words, |
| You shall never return… |
| Any pour souls who trespass against us Whether it be beast or man |
| Will suffer the bite or be stung dead on sight |
| By those who inhabit this land |
| For there’s is the power and this is the kingdom |
| As sure as the sun does burn |
| So enter this path, but heed these four words, |
| You shall never return… |
