Branding Iron Lyrics - Singles - The Nightwatchman

At the textile plant, sixteen dead 

There's a hornet's nest inside my head 

My daughter's gone, she won't be back 

Behind chained doors, they burned to black 

Walk down the street to the convenience store 

I be keeping a secret in my top dresser drawer 

Red light flashing, siren coming loud 

The trap is sprung, I greet the crowd 

I'm a thousand tornadoes screaming across the plains 

I'm Gabriel's horn on Judgement Day 

I'm months of darkness, I'm years of rain 

God's branding iron bares my name 

I'm making a list and checking it twice 

You name the place, I name the price 

If you're feeling lucky, then hold your breath 

And wave goodbye when nothing's left 

There is no tether to hold me back 

There's just one answer, there's just one path 

There's just one reason, there's just one end 

There's just regret, there's just revenge 

Tonight the tower, the bells will chime 

Clear and true, one final time 

I'm a thousand tornadoes screaming across the plains 

I'm Gabriel's horn on Judgement Day 

I'm months of darkness, I'm years of rain 

God's branding iron bares my name 

I'm making a list and checking it twice 

You name the place, I name the price 

If you're feeling lucky, then hold your breath 

And wave goodbye when nothing's left
