[Verse 1]

In the winter's icy grip

Where the snowflakes gently slip

A duel unfolds, a code of honour they abide

Two strangers face to face, a match of two collide

Revenge seeks solace, to the barrier they stride

Pistol poised, a defenceless target in sight

Cornermen whisper setting point of honour right

A banned practice, a distance of ten steps away

Where hardly ever onе's aim goes astray, oh

[Refrain]

Barrel to barrel

Pick a sidе

Pistols poised, barrel to barrel

The luck's on the winner's side

A life-threatening dance where reputations ride

Place your bets, place your bets

To win or to lose is in the duel's embrace

[Verse 2]

My excuse is to define the truth

In the battle between me and you

Reconciliation seems nothing but a dream

As we step to the fore in the winter's gleam

[Refrain]

Pick a side, pick a side

Stakes are high, stakes are high

In the tarnished snow a dead honour will lie

The bloodier the better I say

And to the last blood I'm gonna stand

[Outro]

Amidst the smoke and cries of pain

A moment of doubt, a chance to reclaim

There's no way to hide, the wounds run deep and wide

The choice to heal or let revenge reside

No painkillers I need

I deserved it all indeed

(Though) Though I'm down on my knees

I have battled my old me
