Twilight of the Sun

Well he was standing /
Not a mile from his home/
With that 38 in his hand/
And cocaine around his nose
He was walking/
In the twilight of the sun/
For to do himself some talking/
From the barrel of a gun/

She was laying /
On a chest that wasn't his/
Okay with the regularity /
Of doing what she did/
She was standing/
Nude in the twilight of the sun/
Smoking by the window /
Like the barrel of a gun/

He was thinking/
About the time when they first met/
She had marriage of her finger/
But she was purring to be pet/
He was grinning /
Broad in the twilight of the sun/
Till that smile shot off his face /
Like the bullet from a gun/

They were lying naked/
Didn't hear him coming home/
With that 38 in his hand/
And cocaine around his nose/
They were talking/
In the twilight of the sun/
When he shot into the bedroom/
Like the bullet from a gun/

They were begging/
Saying they were sorry for running around/
He just stared at the picture of her/
In her white wedding gown/
And as the sun went missing/
And the dark night had come/
He put that 38 to his head/
Found his mercies in
The barrel of a gun/
He found his mercies in the barrel of a gun/
