歌曲描述
Every time they staged his death Charlie felt empty as if it was him the one who was dying Tuberculosis was killing him slowly but not more than that dreadful act of treason Charlie talked about Jessie’s wife the same way some priests talk about Charles Wilson the Virgin Mary He wrote her long letters begging for forgiveness but at the end he didn’t send one Rit: Charlie sat on the bed and took off his shoes He dropped the bottle and thought about his life He took a deep breath his eyes were full of tears He picked up his revolver and aimed straight at his own heart His body laid lifeless within sheets and red tears all over his arms the signs of expiation Charlie took courage and chose the fate all the citizens wished to Jassie James’ killer Rit: Charlie sat on the bed and took off his shoes He dropped the bottle and thought about his life He took a deep breath his eyes were full of tears He picked up his revolver and aimed straight at his own heart
