The Ballad of One-Eyed Dale

Lyrics

Echoes in the night, whispers in my ear
Shadows on the wall, a lone figure appears

[VERSE 1]
From out of the woods came a man with pain in his heart
And a drink in his hand, with a spirit to defy
He rode through the town, always looking down
Trying to escape himself and fate itself

[CHORUS]
Oh, he's searching for his team, a people to call home
But his heart is on fire, and his soul is turned to stone
He's trying to find peace, but it's hard to find
When the Rats of his past keep on haunting his mind

[VERSE 2]
He walks alone, through the streets at night
A stranger in his city, with no place to ignite
His spirit is broken, his heart is on the floor, head in the sink
But he won't give up, no, he'll get up once more

[CHORUS]
Oh, he's searching his team, a people to call home
But his heart is on fire, and his soul is turned to stone
He's trying to find peace, but it's hard to find
When the Rats of his past keep on haunting his mind

[BRIDGE]
Maybe he'll find way of the road maybe he'll find his place
To leave his troubles behind, and seize a brand new life
Maybe he'll let go of his pain
And find a place to call home, where he can remain

[HOOK]
He's a man on the move, with a heart full of pain
But he won't give up, no, he'll get up

[OUTRO]
The man disappears, into the night
Leaving behind, a trail of shattered light
His story's left untold, but the echoes remain
A lonely figure, forever in pain.
