You think my presence not worth seeing


You think I have no way of feeling


You think my heart is just as cold


As the steel blade by which you hold


I smile when I load my gun


The life I lead's an easy one


Attention getting acts you see


Wooing every girl I meet


A callous acting youth like me


All too often pre conceived


I hide away old pain or strife


I didn't choose to live this life


When I pour my soul into a shot


You start to have some second thoughts


Scars hidden underneath a mask


Of stirrups and a cowboy hat


Not too often do I crack


Underneath the pressure of this act


There's a stoic man behind the scenes


It's not as easy as it seems


Look past blue eyes and flawless teeth


You might find a human underneath
