Cloak falls on the safe light of day
Dust risin’ up as he blows it all away
Took my chance and put my money to the glass
Sippin’ my luck just hopin’ I could last
Wind blew in from the south of town
Sign that told folks were goin' in the ground
Stone cold stare put the city to its knees
Knew it was my time but I wasn’t beggin’ please
Those heavy souls, oh-oh
I chose my road, oh-oh
The flames enfold, oh-oh
Howls on the wind, they march in his name
I felt the call, but I just stared upon my shame
Boot struck wood and her mouth she opened wide
Two walkers cocked. Only for blood they would abide
Their souls had turned mine into lore
Past got so heavy, couldn’t carry it no more
Turned up against god’s death supplier
Bullets rang out and I descended into fire
Those heavy souls, oh-oh
I chose my road, oh-oh
I pay my toll, oh-oh
