Discover the story of the song > Shotgun – Earl Greyhound

The protagonist of the song explains that he is nobody and is wandering around without anything in his hands. He kneels down and prays, and then a big bird comes and takes him to a temple, where he hears a message. Later, he stands in the red sky on a crow's wing and surrenders himself to the sun. He looks into the eyes of a raven and sees Orion. Throughout the song, it is mentioned that there is panic in the streets and a dead man on the run with his shotgun, but the message is to keep singing and carry on.
