BETWEEN MIND & MACHINE
The Duel
Lyrics by Raymon Fong
The sun's up high in the cloudless sky
Tumbleweed blows across the old man's store
Five minutes to noon and no one's around
The dust blows lightly over this old broken town
A
crackle of the match and the man strikes a light
From the desert sand the outlaw appears
With his six-star badge he rises from his chair
On this old dusty road, in this humid misty air
It's
the duel of the mighty
The challenge of the west
One man will lose this day
While the other proves his best
Each
man holds his life in the spirit of the hand
Knowing who can draw it first will be the one left to
stand
Like tombstones they keep their ground, rigid in their
stance
Arms raised half high ready to advance
Twelve
o'clock hits with the short sound of thunder
One second later there's a silence in the air
Looking at the site of the lifeless body that fell this
day
The outlaw man turns and walks away
