Cuttin' Ties

Well, I went down to the river I went dressed to kill

There was a full moon on the rise in the night and the air was cold, dark and still

Everyone in town, they all know my name

They could all pick me out in a crowd

But I'll do my deed all the same

They'll all say that they just can't believe what I've done

But I ain't no saint, can't live up to that name, so, I'll live and I'll die with my hand on the gun

You used to be my best man

I wish I could forget your name

And I won't rest now till I know you're laid down Devoured by shadow and flame
