Sundown on County Line

(album: International Hotel - 2020)

Power trip gone to his head again
Count the bullets make it look legit
The deputy he acted in defense
The deceased had all but forced his hand

Regret the loss of life
But you raised a son who raised a knife
Eye for an eye now we both are blind
We put your son down on county line

Hesitance has never been a friend
How can you ever truly know a man
Who divides the living from the dead
Who decided it was you or him

Regret the loss of life
But you raised a son who raised a knife
Eye for an eye now the world is blind
We put your son down on county line

Circulation at his wrists
Does suggest no one resists
Some things never seem to die
Like a sundown on county line
