The Great Unknown Songtext
von The Cold Stares

Young man stands high on a hill
Shake his fists at the sky above
Down below in the valley
There′s a grave with a name of a woman he loved
Out west cross the rivers and the plains
Now his brother's striking rich with gold
Their sister in hotel room
Shaking money off a man she knows

Just beyond the great unknown
The answers that nobody knows
Just beyond the great unknown
The answers that nobody knows


Pale rider on a jet black mare
He got a rifle and a .44
500 dollars from a train he robbed
Down south in Mexico
Back home now his wife got a suitor
Got a ring and an evening gown
By the time that he reach Sioux City
She done laid that poor boy down, down, down

Just beyond the great unknown
The answers that nobody knows
Just beyond the great unknown
The answers that nobody knows

Red man with a scalp in his hand
On a horse that he calls War
Soldier just about three days out
Walks in through his front door
Someone always gotta pay the debt
Someone always gotta settle the score
No matter how much blood is shed
Someone always wants more, more, more

Just beyond the great unknown
The answers that nobody knows
Just beyond the great unknown
The answers that nobody knows
