Legend Of The Hollow Riders
The Devil Inside
4:30First blood spilled, it stains the ground A man lies dead, no soul around The mesquite leans, its shadow long The desert hums a funeral song Blood on the mesquite, roots run deep The land remembers, it never sleeps A sin so heavy, the earth does weep Blood on the mesquite, blood to keep The moon hangs low, a witness pale Tracks in the dust, a lonesome trail His gun still warm, his heart gone cold A story written, too dark to be told Blood on the mesquite, roots run deep The land remembers, it never sleeps A sin so heavy, the earth does weep Blood on the mesquite, blood to keep The wind whispers what it saw A justice bent, a broken law The stars above refuse to shine As guilt runs thick like bitter wine Blood on the mesquite, roots run deep The land remembers, it never sleeps A sin so heavy, the earth does weep Blood on the mesquite, blood to keep
