Face the Rain - Carpenter

I faced the lion of the thoughts in my head

And the shark of my fear til the water was red

I tried to salvage what was left of my friends

But couldn’t stand for all their modern day trends

I fought a battle of a thousand to one

Saw bodies fall through the smoke of my gun

But I left them all to face the rain

But I left them all to face the rain

I headed east towards the wheat and the rye

Past johnny law and his all seeing eye

I wouldn’t have it, try to lock me away

They shot me down on a dark day in May

But I left them all to face the rain

But I left them all to face the rain
