Death's Call - Conrad Mortiss
Sunrise
above the horizon
two men walk from opposite ends of town
towards each other
the time has come
One will stand tall
the other will fall
iron's endless hall
destiny's cruel call
life's end
it's death's call
Showdown on the street
western town
desert's dirt
two men face to face
sweat drips in the heat
One will stand tall
the other will fall
iron's endless hall
destiny's cruel call
life's end
it's death's call
one man's luck or skill
both gaze with a
deadly iron stare
at each other
a blink of an eye
can mean the difference
between life and death
One will stand tall
the other will fall
iron's endless hall
destiny's cruel call
life's end
it's death's call
one man's luck or skill
Flicker on the draw
hands of deadly skill
eyes locked in a stare
fate's cruel wheel
death's turn to prevail
One will stand tall
the other will fall
life's end
it's death's call
under the blue sky
in the scorching sun
This agreement burns
straight to the bone
in the dust
it churns the soul
hearts turn to stone
Coffin made of pine
for one destined soul
whose body will fall
Gun fires the sign
for the quickened mind
which story onlookers
in future will extol
One will stand tall
the other will fall
iron's endless hall
destiny's cruel call
life's end
one man's luck or skill
it's death's call
Quicker on the draw
hands of deadly skill
at each other
a blink of an eye
can mean the difference
between life and death
One will stand tall
the other will fall
iron's endless hall
destiny's cruel call
life's end
one man's luck or skill
it's death's call
