Silver Bullet

A few dark words

You said to me

I drew a blank

And then I flew

I walked the plank

Into the blue

My heart beat it leaks

Of silence

I walked along

The coral snow

I saw some lights

An old hotel

The bell was rung

The glass is filled

That cloudy drink that blackened smile

The shade is drawn

With stem and vine

Burned in the flame of a man condemned

With venom wine

And golden dawn

A silver bullet in the chamber turning

You said at last

Let's have a duel

Out by the pines

The day is warm

I played the fool

And when it passed

The gadflies swarmed

And then they died

The shade is drawn

With stem and vine

Burned in the flame of a man condemned

With venom wine

And golden dawn

A silver bullet in the chamber turning

The shade is drawn

With stem and vine

Burned in the flame of a man condemned

With venom wine

And golden dawn

A silver bullet in the chamber turning

The shade is drawn

With stem and vine

Burned in the flame of a man condemned

With venom wine

And golden dawn

A silver bullet in the chamber turning
