The Badge of Law

Twelve o’clock the train arrives.

Twelve o’clock is the time to die.

Why here? Why not run? I’m only a little star.

Am I worth so much that you must die?

They say he will not follow you.

They say he will not hunt you down.

Well, what do they know? Nothing!

Alone. We are all alone.

Fear is creeping in.

I can see it in the lines of your face.

Fear of death and for Amy.

You were so happy. So alive.

You cannot think of her. But you do.

The love is there.

Her leaving hurts more than death.

She doesn’t understand.

This town, are they content to hide behind me?

Do they not know they are responsible?

They must not.

Miller is coming.

Nothing can stop him.

Nothing but lead.

Running is not an option.

I can see you’ve made up your mind.

Better death fighting than life in fear.

These men are cowards.

Memories are funny things.

Which ones choosing to stay or leave.

Shots in the street.

Women and children running.

Fear. Death.

But we changed that.

We brought peace.

Will no one fight for peace?

Will no one fight for justice?

To die is nothing.

To die alone is hell.
