Many towns, many paces Seem to melt into one I'll made a name for myself At the end of a gun I played this part, oh, so long I now believe it myself I watched the clock One more notch He called me out in noon Just a kid dressed in black In less than an hour he'll be dead in his tracks Wheels of faith are in motion A tragic play in reverse I watched the clock One more notch Oh, what a lonely road The winters have come and gone I've seen so many things Things that I can't explain I was once young and mad Look at me I'm the last of my breed Please look at me If he would only listen I'd say put down your gun You're young and full of promise Don't live your life on the run His eyes just looked through me I know how this chapter ends I watched the clock One more notch Spread peace and love We must live as one Don't live on the run Put down your gun Don't live in fear There'll be no more tears Spread peace and love We must live as one
