lyrics

A Handful of Dust

Ice cold stare
Cloaked in shadow
Dusty boot spur scrape
Finger on the trigger
A killer by instinct
The gunslingers intent
Eye for an eye
Everyone for himself

The blue of the Pacific is just a pale and distant dream
Clouded by the quest for gold

Horse kick recoil
Muzzle flash
Blood and thunder
Throbbing gun wound pain
Vicious heartless bastard
Filthy crooked grin
Gold begets greed
Greed begets misery

The blue of the Pacific is just a pale and distant dream
Clouded by the quest for gold

The glimmer of gold
A wasteland mirage
A handful of dust
Desperation and fear
At the hour of death
The promise of wealth
Becomes as meaningless
As that damned hunger for gold
