Lyrics:
If I turn my eyes
From these cold blue skies
Won’t stay my worry
Won’t calm or quell

I can say my piece
I can barter my tale
Won’t ease my burden
But I might as well

There’s a heavy hand
Laid across this land
And it steers my journey
And it guides my pen

Press on, head high
‘Til the ink has run dry
‘Cause my story ain’t like
To wind home again


Well, I’ll beat my drum
‘Til my last day come
Or the mountain meets the sea

Yeah, the earth will shake
But the boughs she break
Won’t put no fear in me

‘Cause I see a land on high
So I pen my final line

Sky will shimmer and sun will shine
Where the water tastes like wine

Well, I’ve wandered ‘round
And there’s a code I found
Says a gentle manner
And a righteous way

This pair you’ll need
If you follow this creed
She’ll see you through
Until the judgement day

But there ain’t no law
Under tooth and claw
In the nest of vipers
Or the lion’s den

You can holler and wail
‘Til the echo goes stale
Ain’t way nor manner
Gonna save you then

But I’ll beat my drum
‘Til my last day come
Or the mountain meets the sea

Yeah, the earth will shake
But the boughs she break
Won’t put no fear in me

‘Cause I see a land on high
So I pen my final line

Well, stories end and I’m closin’ mine
Where the water tastes like wine

So when the waters still
And you feel that thrill
For the open trail
Has slipped away

When the words won’t flow
When your fingers run slow
And the song you carry
Goes dull and gray.

Well, there’s a place I seen
Where the soul burns clean
And the verse it’s singin’
Rings pure and true

So cry no more
You just open that door
These shores of plenty
Gonna welcome you

And I beat my drum
‘Til my last day come
Or the mountain meets the sea

Yeah, the earth will shake
But the boughs she break
Won’t put no fear in me

‘Cause I see a land on high
So I pen my final line

I’ve said my fill and I’m feelin’ fine
Where the water tastes like wine

    OK be honest who is here after listening to the wizard with a gun trailer music and wanted more from this mistro?
  • Had the absurd luck of finding this game for free, got into it because of Sting and the idea of telling stories, ended up as one of my favorite games ever, as the music plays a major part in it. This is a soundtrack I´ll treasure absolutely, as the feeling of walking through USA while listening to this kept me astonished.
  • @VIRGILE124
    when i saw the trailer i was highly skeptical of this game, but when the music started to rise, i was blown away by its sheer amazing sound.
  • I'm a Russian dude in the middle of Siberia, and I'm hollering it out loud at 10 p.m. Just so you know.
  • @pseudogenesis
    I love game soundtracks, so I can't believe it's taken me so long to find this one. This is just incredible. Pure Americana. I'm gonna be blasting this OST for a long, long time. Till my last day come, or the mountain meets the sea.
  • @Rakka5
    This gives me some SERIOUS Supergiant Games wibe. Amazing job on this soundtrack!
  • @madness..3449
    Things like this...make you feel that the word Art still means something in this world...
  • @dramotarker1352
    I think the game looks very interesting and something for me but it seemed like the walking was gonna get pretty repetetive but then the music came on and i was honestly in awe. It's just amazing. I will definitely buy the game now for what seems to be an interesting narrative and some amazing music. So really thanks for making this music. I hope you will continue making great music.
  • I bought this game thinking it was a card game but it turned out to be something so much more original and just fell in love with this little gem.
  • @wraithneon
    Massive Firefly fan here, and just came across this game on Steam. The soundtrack is just outstanding.
  • @Ginger-Sage
    you and this game have changed the way i lead my life and i am ever thankful
  • @holysol
    I got this game for free like a thousand years ago, and something about the art threw me off, or the premise in the blurb just didn't grab me, or maybe because it was on Epic. It wasn't until later, when watching someone play West of Loathing and falling in love with the 'Misbehave in this Cave' track, that I ended up finding you and this youtube channel. Looking through your stuff, I stumbled on this track - and it hit me hard. Made me go look for the game - 'lo and behold I own it, and I ended up putting some hours in. Anyway, rambling tangent aside, you make some pretty banging tracks.
  • @TheItachi4077
    Oh damn, I remember playing the short version of this before the game came out, on loop. Just stumbled upon this and the moment when it DIDNT stop but kept being awesome really hit me. Bravo!
  • @thejpc
    LOVE this song - very Firefly-esque, but the longer length, male/female vocals, and the way in which it tells a story is just so beautiful. Had it not been for the game trailer, I would never have discovered Ryan's music, so I am very thankful for Ryan, his amazing talent, and his awesome music!
  • @rando5638
    Hope is fear turned inside-out. You know there's no Promised Land. You know you'll never find it... ... but you might.
  • @SoulgainTM
    When voices mix perfectly. Love it, thanks for the song!
  • This is one of my favorites soundtracks of all time. While playing the game sometimes I would just close my eyes and listen to the music. Beautiful lyrics and melody. I loved the game and the songs are one of the biggest reasons for that.
  • @hadoken5402
    not even my type of music but bloody hell its gorgeous to hear. compliments to the chef.
  • Me: "Country music sucks. Period. You can't change my mind on thi-" Ryan Ike: "I'm about to end this man's whole preconceptions."
