All over this town
hang posters with my name
I know the crime was committed
but
I'm not the one to blame
Such a shame
There's such a high price on my head
And scary to think that everyone
would
rather see me dead
The crime that I've committed
Is the crime of mastery
But I know God has a plan
A plan
for me
You see, he'd rather see me die now, than grow old in misery
God's favor is staring down
Down at me
Sitting
at my stool
his eyes turn to question me
He sees my hands folded
and wonders, "how quick can they be?"
Sitting
contently
knowing that I have nothing left to prove
Knowing if I turn my back
he's going to make his move
She
says, "I'll never leave your side,
Though this town's hired guns
Would choose to turn the tide."
My desert flower,
please collect the rain
For this town's bitterness has inflicted so much pain
The crime that I've committed
Is
the crime of mastery
But I know God has a plan
A plan for me
You see, he'd rather see me die now, than grow old in
misery
God's favor is staring down
Down at me
My destiny is unavoidable
when the lord reaches down from above
My
heart is filled with sadness
for I'm leaving my only true love
They'll never have the satisfaction
of knowing they
took my life away
So be strong my desert flower
for today is the day
He came to me in a dream last night and
said
"Don't worry about anything, everything will be alright"
So my love although you cannot see me
I'll be waiting
for you in eternity
The crime that I've committed
Is the crime of mastery
But I know God has a plan
A plan
for me
You see, he'd rather see me die now, than grow old in misery
God's favor is staring down
Down at me
