Lyrics
I wonder
I am curious or puzzled
How it all came to be the trade
Contemplating the origins of the profession or lifestyle
The wine of the hunter always
Referring to the pursuit of the hunter, suggesting it's less potent than the prey
Weaker than the prey
Stating the weakness of the hunter compared to the prey
And it all tastes so bleak
Expressing a sense of despair or desolation in experiences
The same
Highlighting a monotonous or repetitive nature
Attested to them each
Confirmed or verified by them, assigning blame
The blame
The responsibility placed on individuals
I'm the wanderer
Identifying oneself as a traveler without a fixed destination
The path is laid to reach
The journey is predetermined and will diminish
And wane
Mentioning the act of traveling on a mountainside and expressing one's destiny
Travel on the mountainside and speak
Self-identification as a gunslinger, responsible for facing and protecting the path
Your fate
Encouraging others to express their destinies
I'm the gunslinger
Reiteration of being a gunslinger
I face and guard the way
Taking on the role of a guardian and confronting challenges
Voiceless and calling out
Being without a voice but reaching out
I bleed but hide the pain
Enduring suffering silently
And walk away
Choosing to move forward despite pain
I can't see myself to know I'm there
Expressing a struggle with self-perception
I'm the ghost of time and life laid bare
Identifying as a ghost, representing the intangibility of time and exposed life
And I, I'm waiting for you
Waiting for someone
Oh I'm alive and breathing
Acknowledging being alive and actively participating in life
I'm pleading for you
Pleading for someone's attention or presence
Like the bullet that's shattering and aimed into
Comparing oneself to a shattering bullet directed inward
My insides, but I'm alive
Experiencing internal turmoil but surviving
I'm everything
Embracing all aspects of existence
I'll take it all
Willing to accept everything, possibly indicating resilience
I'm the gunslinger
Reiteration of being a gunslinger and a guardian
I face and guard the way
Continuation of the role of facing and protecting the way
Voiceless and calling out
Being voiceless but still reaching out
I bleed and take the pain
Enduring pain and accepting it
I'll take your pain
Expressing willingness to bear someone else's pain
I'll take your pain
Repeated willingness to share another's pain
I'll take your pain
Continued expression of readiness to absorb pain
I'll take your pain
Repeated commitment to taking on someone else's pain
