Dust and Iron |
LyricsDust and IronBy Yves Stilmant Verse 1A The wind still howls through canyon walls Where broken stars and silence fall A badge lies rusted in the dirt Its story buried deep in hurt Verse 1B The outlaw rode through fire and stone He chased the gold, he died alone The fire's gone but something stays His name still echoes through the haze Pre-Chorus They built this land on dust and flame But no one now recalls their name Chorus Dust and iron, blood and pride Ghosts still ride where legends died Their voices fade in wind and rain But time can't wash away the pain You can hear them through the trees In the dark and restless breeze Dust and iron, truth and flame Gone from sight, but not from name Verse 2A A woman waits in empty rooms She danced in light, she walked through gloom Her voice was soft, her will was steel She loved a man too hard to heal Verse 2B A preacher rode with Bible worn He blessed the lost, the weak, the torn He spoke through fire, he prayed through night His voice still lives beneath the light Pre-Chorus You can't erase the sky and land But you can bleed to make a stand Chorus Dust and iron, blood and pride Ghosts still ride where legends died Their voices fade in wind and rain But time can't wash away the pain You can hear them through the trees In the dark and restless breeze Dust and iron, truth and flame Gone from sight, but not from name Bridge The West still breathes in soil and bone In every trail and place unknown Their stories live in boots and fire In every song, in each desire Final Chorus Dust and iron, blood and pride Still they ride, still they confide In the wind and in the flame In each forgotten outlaw name They were wild, they were free Now they ride eternity Dust and iron, side by side Gone from view... but never died Outro Dust and iron... still survive. |
