lyrics

Daddy walks with a gun in his hand
A vintage cowboy
Stetson hat
Knows every word they say behind his back
Stocked-up on bullets,
One for every jack

Of all his brothers he’s an only child
Of all his buddies
The only man
One life’s too little for this bare outlaw
All dreams will dry out through his ruthless eyes

Seeking god’s condemnation
Guilt trepidation
“Everything you love must die”

Half Star Cowboy
Half Star Cowboy —a true man walks alone

Mommy wants the sixgun away
This unsung hero will not take debate
Feel the temple
Feel the gun
“Everything you love must die”

Half Star Cowboy
Half Star Cowboy —a true man walks alone

Leave behind this life of cowards
Break the things close to your heart
Drink the crystal clear elixir
Everything you know must die

Drink the crystal clear elixir
Have all fools remove their masks
Rise above these troubled waters
Everything you love must die
Load up — headshot!
Aim straight — headshot!
Discharge — headshot!

Feel the temple, feel the gun
Dead is all you have become
No more guilt, no more burn
Every fear will die in turn

Half Star Cowboy
Half Star Cowboy —a true man walks alone
Drink the crystal clear elixir
Everything you love must die
