Duel
The clock strikes four on a November morning
I’m leaving early to meet my opponent
He’s waiting for me on a hill outside the town
For honor and grace he said he’ll shoot me down
Through the dark streets I rush while the rain is pouring
Pale lanterns light the way my wary heart forewarning
As I step through the gate a shiver runs down my spine
With each breath that I take a whisper begs me to decline
It’s a duel at the gates I’m going to
Don’t know if heaven or hell awaits
At my duel at the gates I may fall for you
And I know, I know, I know, I can’t be late
Upon the hill's embrace beneath a sky so still
The second's voice unfolds the duel's binding will
Ten paces forth you walk then turn on heel and stand
Let your aim be true and let honor guide your hand
It’s a duel at the gates I’m going to
Don’t know if heaven or hell awaits
At my duel at the gates I may fall for you
And I know, I know, I know, I can’t be late
And I count my steps
One
Is it right
Two
To kill for pride
Three
Is it right
Four
To kill for honor
Five
Is it right
Six
Seven
Eight
Nine
Ten
Pull the trigger!
It’s a duel at the gates I’m going to
Don’t know if heaven or hell awaits
At my duel at the gates I may fall for you
And I know, I know
It’s a duel at the gates I’m going to
Don’t know if heaven or hell awaits
At my duel at the gates I may fall for you
And I know, I know, I can’t be late
To the duel’s grim parade
It’s a bullet that dictates
My fate, oh lord, oh lord, as I can’t await
My duel at the gates
