So sure of their station, men they were brave
But the pride of the general led them to their grave
In that final hour, lives they were lost
Few knew how the west was won and fewer know the cost
They paid with blood as all men should
Their mournful cries under western skies
Along the horizon their shadows spilling forth
bleeding over the wounded plain
The trap is set the ambush awaits
Their fate is sealed
Counting coup or taking your life
Knocking my bow or unsheathing my knife
Cold and forsaken lies the twisted heart within this shell
With every scalp I take I send a devil back to hell
I fight with the powers of the gods at my side
Their fate is sealed
I will live, you will die
Ascend with your spirit to the sky
My medicine is strong
Now I sing a grand war song
Seething malice, full of hate
Painted horses seal your fate

The Entertainer (demo)

Soldiers shouted get down on your knees (your family name's' a disease)
I cried out but no one heard my call (they were the first against the wall)
Fleeing from my home I am broken
Journey to a land of lead and gold
Pouring the contents of soul through my fingers into these keys
Floating right over the heads of those that I would kill myself to appease
I am but a simple entertainer, I'd walk through hell just to play you a song
Every note, every phrase, every coda, reminders of ways in which my life went wrong
Where there stood a boy stands a man
I play these ivory keys with my hands
So my son
All your life
Strive to be somebody
And I know
In my heart
That you'll be
Never look back again
I'll never look back again

Eye for the Color (demo)

I came this land
with naught but the clothes on my back and the gun in my hand
I went into the hills
despite all the talk of the natives and men that they killed
Doomed to wallow in the filth of man
I'll never see my home again
There is a price for power
Beneath the blackened hills
Battling the earth with fire and steel
Deeper and deeper till its golden daughters are revealed
Shattering the core, maniacally obsessed
With every breath I take I black the lungs within my chest
Blacker than the darkest night
The daylight fading from my sight
There is a price for power
Beneath the blackened hills
No man can ever stop me
For its favor I will kill
Though my heart must break
With every claim I stake for gold
Everything I do, It's all for you
I lose my soul
