OUTLAW
There’s an outlaw hiding-out inside of me
He waits in ambush, till I think I’m free
Then swift as lightning on the darkest night
He’s right beside me, putting out my light
Yeah there’s a desperado deep inside of me
He waits in darkness till I think I’m free
Then draws my hand toward the sharpened knife
To kill me cold, to give himself new life
There’s a danger lurking deep within my heart
That forces me to always live apart
It flashes red and black and back again
It turns my inner sunshine into rain
I know that somewhere deep within my soul
There lurks an angel, wings as black as coal
He guides me into swamps and burning seas
And only when I weep does he seem pleased
And if I ever meet me....... This I know
The tears I’ve shed will blow like blizzard snow
Then turn to sand and swirl into the sun
And red all rivers with my blood shall run
There’s an outlaw hiding-out inside of me
He waits in ambush, till I think I’m free
