You wanted me gone, so I vanished
Gave you what you wanted, you have it
Enjoy and reap the reward of my absence
And when you come searching, I'm still
Be nothing more than a silhouette on the hill

In setting of the sunlight you're blinded
Stevie cast a spell that's still bindin'
That you could never get away from my likeness
And now that you've come searchin', I'm still
Nothing more than a silhouette in the hill

I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill

It's driven better men crazy
The hunger for forgiveness for crimes
Did you hear the legends that they speak
Of a rider with a horse just like mine?

There was a time I would have gone hunting
For the blood of an already dead man
Just to give satisfaction
That when you died, it was by my hand

I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill
I'm silhouette in the hill

Son, do you know hat you've done?
Been several years and some
There's nothing I can gain hearing words of a dead man
Don't want a part of your redemption arc
I can't hurry the stars no matter how you extend hands

Would you cease your trite forgiveness pleas?
I'm not a deity, don't have the power to send back
What's done by your hand
My blood mixed with the sand
And I limped out the desert, tell me, did you intend that?

I'm a silhouette in the hill (son, do you know what you've done?)
I'm a silhouette in the hill (been several years and some)
I'm a silhouette in the hill (there's nothing I can gain hearin' the words of a dead man)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (don't want a part)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (of your redemption arc)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (I can't hurry the stars no matter how you extend hands)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (would you cease)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (of your trite forgiveness pleas?)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (I'm not a deity, don't have the power to send back)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (what's done by your hand)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (my blood mixed with the sand)
I'm a silhouette on the hill
