The duell

I have a silver bullet in my hand

A big, shiny one

Your name is written on it

A big, shiny silver bullet

I put it in my gun

You made me do this, you gave me no choice

I walk towards you and raise my arm

Yes, raise my arm

I look at you with steel blue eyes

The sun is shining, your forehead is wet

I see you trembling where you stand

Your gun is loaded, you have wanted this for a long time

Meet me out here for a duel

I hear them count from five to one

The duel is like slow motion

I hear you pull the gun in an instant

Mine is aimed at you

I cock the hammer and pull the trigger

The hammer hits the primer, gunpowder ignites

A flame comes out, a cloud of gray smoke

My silver bullet with your name on it flies away

Yes, it flies away

It whizzes through the air and hits you hard

It goes through, I must have charged a little hard

You fall to your knees and look blankly into the air

You didn't have time to send yours off

You didn't have time to send yours off

You fall into the dust, lifeless

Your body stopped living when the bullet hit

Now you lie six feet under forever

And I ride off on my black horse
