Peacemaker
Harmony Unraveled: A Tale of Redemption and Retribution
Lyrics
When I came to
Reflecting on a moment of arrival or awakening.
I was holding a picture of you In the golden light
Finding a picture of someone significant in a moment of realization or clarity.
There he lay
Discovering someone lying down, possibly in a state of rest or demise.
The last soul to faded away
Witnessing the departure of the last soul, signifying the end of something.
now I’m free to ride away from this broken life
Feeling liberated to move away from a troubled existence.
I got loaded on that whiskey and Rye
Consuming whiskey and rye in a desert setting, possibly under challenging circumstances.
It was a hot desert’s night out on the run
Recalling a hot desert night while on the run, creating a sense of urgency or danger.
All of my blood
Feeling intense emotions as blood reaches a boiling point.
Started to boil to the top
Experiencing heightened emotions or intensity.
And I lost all of my sight for just a moment
Losing clarity or perspective briefly due to overwhelming emotions.
I couldn’t save her or buy any piece of mind
Expressing regret for being unable to save someone and unable to find peace of mind.
So I brought my peacemaker That old colt 45
Turning to a peacemaker, a Colt .45, as a symbolic solution or coping mechanism.
Now our memories
Memories persisting and reaching out, suggesting a lasting impact.
Live on the breeze and I hear them Howling out to me
Memories are alive and audible, possibly haunting or influencing the present.
Adrift in her stare
Describing a gaze and appearance, possibly of a significant person.
and her long crimson hair
Highlighting the impact of love on personal well-being.
How her love cured my disease
Expressing how love had a healing effect.
But he took that away
Referring to the loss of love or a positive influence.
and for that he must pay
Imposing consequences on someone who took away the positive influence.
In cold hard blood
Seeking retribution or justice with a reference to cold hard blood.
I’m that black powder Without her in my life
Describing a sense of emptiness or instability without the presence of a loved one.
And I’ve become that peacemaker
Becoming a peacemaker, possibly implying a transformation or a new role.
That old colt .45
Identifying with a Colt .45 as a symbol of the peacemaker role.
