"Rusted Gold" lyrics

I was once the broken one
You branded my very soul
I was crawling through the desert
While your forces took control
Outside of Durango I dug a shallow grave
I buried my Leviathan while sharpening my blade
The mark of Cain upon me for I didn't show respect
A gentleman in glasses with a rope around his neck

Unbound, unbroken, like rusted gold
The vow is unspoken, the legends never told
Your treasure is a censure as it weighs against your soul
Still rising and shining like rusted gold

I ride upon the precipice
I sleep beneath the stars
The lawman or the nemesis
You'll never break this cowboy's heart

When the fuse is running out
You're tied upon the tracks
Hounds are hot upon your trail
That's when I'm coming back
That's when you need a sinner man
With soul as black as sin
They said I was beyond reprieve
But now I'm back to fight, fight, fight, fight and win

Unbound, unbroken, like rusted gold
The vow is unspoken, the legends never told
The man in black is fighting to release the stranglehold
Still rising and shining like rusted gold

You'll never need to ask me
You'll never need to pay
I'm a coffin ship survivor
I'm manacled to fate
When they come to write the history
I'm never seen or heard
Vengeance is my calling card
Bullets spelling out these words

Unbound, unbroken, like rusted gold
The vow is unspoken, the legends never told
You'll say you were a witness to the man who broke the mold
Still rising and shining like rusted gold
