Lonely Jim, lonely walking
Shotgun in the crook of his arm
Black dog follows
This man is going nowhere
But he's got to be somewhere dark
Shoots at streetlights
Every breath he takes
Is one breath closer
To his last
He knows in his heart
The sheriff's coming
To clear things up for him
In the newspaper too...
Hidden script on the street sign
He pauses to read into it
It just confuses
Remembering soft caresses
Raina in her silks and dresses
Cause things seem so far...
