the unforgiven (1986) - the gauntlet lyrics

when i left daytona, i could not be dissuaded
i was headstrong and happy as i hit the road to see
when i left daytona, i was hungry and yearning
for the grit of the city, the likes of which i’d never seen

joy of joys, when i hit it, i was not a stranger
i was taken in and told that i belonged
for a small contribution, had more friends than i could handle
but when what i had to say
had all been spent away
i was suddenly, irrevocably alone

now i’m runnin’ the gauntlet
down the barrel of a shotgun
runnin’ alone
bash, bash, go the fists of the gauntlet
shoot me out like buckshot
runnin’ it home

when i fell from grace here, i was late in reacting
i thought; “these are my friends and they won’t let me down”
but when i saw them lined up, armed to the t++th and screaming
i kinda got the feeling they didn’t want me around

the nightmare that follows is hard to imagine
full of runnin’ and screamin’ and coverin’ up my head
for each step i took another blow that shook me, dizzy and reelin’
but when the last one hit its mark
the gauntlet fell apart
and i was suddenly, undeniably free
now i’m runnin’ the gauntlet
down the barrel of a shotgun
runnin’ alone
bash, bash, go the fists of the gauntlet
shoot me out like buckshot
runnin’ it home

it’s a long way home…

now i’m runnin’ the gauntlet
down the barrel of a shotgun
runnin’ alone
bang, bang, go the fists of the gauntlet
shoot me out like buckshot
runnin’ it home
