Moon Don’t Shine on Men Like Me
TitanChord
Boot prints lost in blood and snow,
No name left for the wind to know
My horse don’t flinch, my heart don’t beat —
I ride with ghosts I never meet
The moon sees all, but turns away
From men like me who can’t be saved
No prayer can stitch what I became,
Just cursed earth and a borrowed name
Moon don’t shine on men like me
We ride where light won’t ever be
The stars look down, but they don’t speak —
The silence howls, the silence sees
Left my blood on canyon walls
Each sin I earned, each vow that falls
The wolf beside me don’t judge nor lie —
Just walks in step and waits to die
They carved my soul with rusted steel,
But mercy ain’t a thing I feel
I ain’t the devil, not quite free —
Just something dead that used to be
Moon don’t shine on men like me
Just dirt, and death, and memory
No preacher ever looked my way —
The dark was home before the grave
Moon don’t shine on men like me
No light, no god, no destiny
Just dust behind, and eyes ahead —
I ride with wolves and count the dead
Timing is estimated — lines are spaced evenly across the track.

Lyrics
Boot prints lost in blood and snow, No name left for the wind to know My horse don’t flinch, my heart don’t beat — I ride with ghosts I never meet
The moon sees all, but turns away From men like me who can’t be saved No prayer can stitch what I became, Just cursed earth and a borrowed name
Moon don’t shine on men like me We ride where light won’t ever be The stars look down, but they don’t speak — The silence howls, the silence sees
Left my blood on canyon walls Each sin I earned, each vow that falls The wolf beside me don’t judge nor lie — Just walks in step and waits to die
They carved my soul with rusted steel, But mercy ain’t a thing I feel I ain’t the devil, not quite free — Just something dead that used to be
Moon don’t shine on men like me Just dirt, and death, and memory No preacher ever looked my way — The dark was home before the grave
Moon don’t shine on men like me No light, no god, no destiny Just dust behind, and eyes ahead — I ride with wolves and count the dead
