about

A tribute to Red Dead Redemption II and the miserable life of Arthur Morgan.

lyrics

Arthur you lived a violent life
from St Denis to Valentine
from Butcher's Creek to the Guarma Shores
You found yourself and left what's yours

Chorus
There ain't no morning for you
There aint no morning for you

Arthur you've been betrayed by your kind
you've been loved, despised and denied
you've been gone when your beloved died
in a world of greed and murder you died

Chorus
There ain't no morning for you
There aint no morning for you

Although you're beat when you take your last breath
your soul is freed in a meaningful death
redemption you find in this moment of truth
the deer and the wolf they are waiting for you

Chorus
There ain't no morning for you
There aint no morning for you

a ghost like the slaves and the Indians
civil war veterans
civilization broke you again
it's time for you to go home again

Chorus
There ain't no morning for you
There aint no morning for you
