lyrics

a tall and handsome man rides to find the minds of blasphemy
he’s found on saddleback down beaten tracks
with bloodied clothes and feet
oh saul you fool what have you done
disobeyed and strayed from me
have you no grasp of the prophet son
your the outlaw on devils knee

you have the papers
the bounty on their heads
and the road that you ride upon
will be dark and cold and dead

outlaw stranger
struck by saints the
long road ends in shame
strong jawed saviour
blind to danger
roads they tend to change

you seek to duel with preacher men who slander what you teach
their words are works of heathens and their words is what they’ll eat
but then a blinding light from skies
shouts words of which you heed
these men are soldiers for me so no longer shall you see

you have the papers
the bounty on their heads
and this road you ride on
side by side on
stark and underfed

outlaw stranger
struck by saints the
long road ends in shame
strong jawed saviour
blind to danger
roads they tend to change
and this road lends to fame
yeah roads they tend to change

come to find us Ananias

no more blood shed in this town
no more bullet shells on the ground
oh my brothers you see
I’ve led you to believe
that i was a saint until now
so smoke em up boys drink em down
there’s work to be done in this town
we’ll ride through the night
and by dawns early light
we’ll return all our guns to the ground
yeah we’ll ride through the night
and by dawns early light
we’ll return all our guns to the ground
and wait for the trumpets to sound

outlaw stranger
struck by saints the
long road ends in shame
strong jawed saviour
blind to danger
roads they tend to change
and this road lends to fame
yeah roads they tend to change

come to find us Ananias
won’t you come

I don't hear a lot of this kind of music, gives me ,loose Sonic Youth vibes. Everything about it is cool, like too cool for school cool. I want to skip class and spray paint an alley with these people. Kyle Zarnoch
