Lyrics
Verse 1:
In a dusty town where shadows grow,
Two men stand where the winds blow low,
Eyes locked tight, their fates entwined,
With hands on holsters, nerves unwind.
The sun beats down, a blistering glare,
The street is silent, the townsfolk stare,
A hush descends, all breaths held tight,
Two hearts beat wild in the dying light.
Chorus:
High noon, the moment's near,
Sweat and dust, the smell of fear,
Steel and lead, fate's final call,
One will rise, and one will fall.
Verse 2:
Their gazes fierce, no words to share,
The clock ticks on, the standoff's snare,
A lifetime's choice in a heartbeat made,
As fingers twitch and courage sways.
The world stands still, the tension grows,
A deadly dance as the cold wind blows,
One last breath, a fleeting chance,
In a blur of motion, the weapons dance.
Chorus:
High noon, the moment's near,
Sweat and dust, the smell of fear,
Steel and lead, fate's final call,
One will rise, and one will fall.
Verse 3:
A shot rings out, a cry of pain,
The dust settles, and life is slain,
One man falls, his spirit freed,
The other stands, his soul to bleed.
The echoes fade, the battle done,
A tale of loss in the setting sun,
For glory’s brief, and honor’s frail,
In the end, it’s just a mournful tale.
Bridge:
Orchestral swells, the violins weep,
The brass resounds, the secrets they keep,
A cello moans, the dirge of fate,
As shadows lengthen, it’s too late.
Outro Chorus:
High noon, the deed is done,
Dust and death beneath the sun,
Steel and lead, fate's final call,
One will rise, and one will fall.
Outro:
The street is empty, silence reigns,
Where two men stood, now one remains,
A solemn walk through the ghostly town,
The sun sets slow, and darkness drowns.
Orchestral notes in a sorrowful sweep,
Strings and horns in a gentle creep,
A last refrain, a soft lament,
For the lives and dreams that time has spent.
