It’s the firing line
This cursed space
By my side must be a hard luck place
No one ever did stay
Never stayed too long
Just long enough
To go all wrong
Where the rest had failed you stood this ground
For you I lay myself down
O my love
It’s time you know
So listen close and let it go
I’ll wear these chains like a shining crown
For you I lay myself down
So leave your guns
Smoking at the gate
We’ll never be free til we’re free from hate
Where tomorrow leads
I cannot go
That path is for your steps alone
Shed no more tears upon this ground
For you I lay myself down
When I’d lost faith it was you I found
For you I lay myself down
This cursed space
By my side must be a hard luck place
No one ever did stay
Never stayed too long
Just long enough

Where the rest had failed you stood this ground
For you I lay myself down

It’s time you know
So listen close and let it go
I’ll wear these chains like a shining crown

So leave your guns
Smoking at the gate
We’ll never be free til we’re free from hate
Where tomorrow leads
I cannot go
That path is for your steps alone
Shed no more tears upon this ground
For you I lay myself down
When I’d lost faith it was you I found
For you I lay myself down
