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 searchin', I'll still
Be nothing more than just a silhouette on the hill
In the 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 just a silhouette on the hill

I'm a silhouette on thе hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouеtte on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill

It's driven better men crazy
The hunger for forgiveness for crimes
Did you hear the legends 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 have the satisfaction
That when you died, it was by my hand

I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill
I'm a silhouette on the hill

Son, do you know what you've done?
Been several years and some
There's nothing I can gain hearin' the 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 on the hill
(Son, do you know what you've done?)
I'm a silhouette on the hill (Been several years and some)
I'm a silhouette on 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
