about

It's (yet another) cowboy song - hence the american accent !
Liked the song and managed to get The Old Snowmen out to record it - lucky it's winter or they would never've ventured out

lyrics

The rain beats on a hotel window pane
And laughter in the street below
Life goes on like a hurricane
But for me it moves so slow

One more dream and one more pill
I’m thinking back – what I had and what I got
The clock ticks but time stands still
I’m looking down the barrel of my last pistol shot

I wish that the stars would turn around
My dreams are all twisted
My gravity is sinking down
And time is telling me that I never existed

The world is turning still
I’m looking at your picture and I still like it a lot
I’m still here but I’m still ill
I’m looking down the barrel of my last pistol shot

Well nothing ever comes back
It’s a one way track
A one way ticket on a fast train express terminating next stop and that is that

So pass me a pencil
As you pass the pistol
I need to get a message
To anyone who cares to listen

The world don’t owe me a thing
I won and I wasted a lot
I’m not crying and I’m not complaining (Now there’s a black star rising)
I’m looking down the barrel of my last pistol shot
