lyrics

crystal creek rips right through the mountain
flows to the valley and paints it
clean from the filth from the noise, no fear
whoever dwells here reaps unseen

the people, their village, the pureness, their weakness,
the fortune, their failure, their ill beliefs
gods must’ve bred them, fed them, kept them
loved them so much better than the rest

right through the mountain, with good intentions,
with beauty, indifference, a hero, and a drunk
down to the valley, their bags full of demons
whoever camps here disrupts the peace

the mockery, their strangeness, the falseness, their shrewdness,
their blindness, the craving, their ill deceits
ignorant fools, conjured, beseeched, believed
until they made them mares turn real

then some day
god must have walked away

now i’m a
gunslinger — said and done
tinger killer — null and void
gunslinger — to the sounds
tinger killer — of our guns

see what my past made me do
all those years cycling through
just the beauty, a sweet spot in time
ignores the truth, lets it shine
while the hero and the drunk
fail their egos, moral junk
the dazed and numb, blind their minds
see the sharpest, escape the crimes

now i’m a
gunslinger — said and done
tinger killer — null and void
gunslinger — to the sounds
tinger killer — of our guns

bring your gods
