Betrayal

Staring down the barrel of a gun
Night is closing in. Nowhere to run
I thought that we were tight as close as brothers
One act of betrayal sets the Sun
Whoah! Don't understand it
Whoah! This how you planned it?

Nerves wound in a deadly game of timing
Faster than a snake bite, bullets flying
Caught in the moment that I let you go
Eyes of a dead friend stare into my own
Caught in the moment of a broken oath
Eyes of a dead friend keep their secrets close
We came here to dig up buried gold
Now I dig a grave to rest your soul

I try to find forgiveness but the pain is much too raw
I toss you a coin then turn to go
Whoah! What were you thinking?
Whoah! Why did you risk it?
As I ride away the heavens open

Lightning fills the sky just like an omen
Caught in the moment that I let you go
Eyes of a dead friend stare into my own
Caught in the moment of a broken oath
Eyes of a dead friend keep their secrets close
