Seconds passed like hours 
Time stood nearly still 
As he slowly crossed the dusty street 
His gun already loaded 
Prepared to seal his fate 
Any withdrawal would be too late 

Shotdown downtown 
Shotdown downtown 
Only one of the brave that wanted to save the world 
Only one of the poor to fit the grave 
And never come back for more 

Entered the bar to pour his final drink 
Sweat ran down his weathered akin, 
Hands began to shiver courage disappeared 
Clutched his belt to control his fear 

Seconds passed like hours 
Time stood nearly still 
As he reeled across the empty street 
Slowly hit the ground 
All pain was somehow gone 
Blood ran down his tired limbs
