Grinding on his teeth as he heads out west With a pistol on his hip And a bullet in his chest The sun cracks it's whip Sweat drips stings his eyes Reality's grip is severing it's ties
Cause he walked the life of a simple man, Some see the bodies but they don't understand On his way through shifting sands He got a one way ticket to the end
He knows the world won't ever change, He got to live it his own way Now getting what was taken The beast inside has waken He knows the world won't ever change
Staring at the lights That embrace a desert sky A sight he's never seen Like the full moon in his eye Hollow headed strangers On a path to the unknown, Chasing after fortune Like a king without his throne
He stands at the edge of what he can't understand With a smile on his face and a gun in his hand No need for questions, No time to spare, He got a burden he can't bare
He knows the world won't ever change, He got to live it his own way Now getting what was taken The beast inside has waken He knows the world won't ever change
Losing touch, I can see, Minds enslaved, lust and greed Nothing you can take from me, Let my work be done
He's just a simple man He's just a simple man He's just a simple man You wouldn't understand
He's just a simple man He's just a simple man He's just a simple man You wouldn't understand
He knows the world won't ever change, He got to live it his own way Now getting what was taken The beast inside has waken He knows the world won't ever change
