Westward and Gone
There's nothing more left for me here
But shadows and dust
Chasing ghosts and memories
Down roads of rust
No man's been able to take me in
I'm a gun on the run
Like Cain was to Abel I'm no man's brother
This life is nearly done
On the wave of the dawn
My back toward the sun
My fight already won
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
We came to this town, my boy and I
Traded old lives for new
But a past once buried deep caught up
Demanding its due
Flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone
They took my bloodline
So I laid waste to men I once called brothers
Vengeance is blind
On the wave of the dawn
My back toward the sun
My fight already won
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I hear the hellhounds on my trail
And every bullet screams my name
Still I ride, for debts denied
I am not leaving the way I came
There's nothing more left for me here
But shadows and dust
An empty man hollowed out
A void beneath the crust
Redemption, it's for
Men who live with hope
But me I'll ride with a bullet in the chamber
'Til my neck meets the rope
On the wave of the dawn
My back toward the sun
My fight already won
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
But shadows and dust
Chasing ghosts and memories
Down roads of rust
No man's been able to take me in
I'm a gun on the run
Like Cain was to Abel I'm no man's brother
This life is nearly done
On the wave of the dawn
My back toward the sun
My fight already won
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
We came to this town, my boy and I
Traded old lives for new
But a past once buried deep caught up
Demanding its due
Flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone
They took my bloodline
So I laid waste to men I once called brothers
Vengeance is blind
On the wave of the dawn
My back toward the sun
My fight already won
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I hear the hellhounds on my trail
And every bullet screams my name
Still I ride, for debts denied
I am not leaving the way I came
There's nothing more left for me here
But shadows and dust
An empty man hollowed out
A void beneath the crust
Redemption, it's for
Men who live with hope
But me I'll ride with a bullet in the chamber
'Til my neck meets the rope
On the wave of the dawn
My back toward the sun
My fight already won
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
I'm westward and gone
