Riding Into Silence
The canyon wall is bleeding gold
A heavy shadow on the trail
The reins are loose,
the night is cold
The final breath behind the veil
His horse's hooves they know the way
No map is drawn to guide them back
Another
life, another day
A silent crimson on the track
He left the valley safe and clear
Behind the dust of midday sun
They'll never shed a single tear
For what was lost,
for what was done
Ride on, ride on through golden stone (ahhhh) The savior dies and
rides alone
They sweep the streets and sweep his frame
But nobody asked his name
A single bullet in his side
He doesn't reach to stem the flow
It is the end of all his pride
The final peace he'll ever know
Ride on,
ride on through golden stone (ahhhh) The savior dies and rides alone
They sweep the streets and sweep his frame
And nobody asked his name
Nobody asked... (hummm)
