20 James Marsters Icons
Wednesday, May 21st, 2025 11:13 amI start with this post of 20 icons, for
characters20in20 all from the film
High Plains Invaders which is a film starring James Marsters ... so, yes, one I certainly had to watch!
I obviously wished too hard for learning work containing text, as this was another challenge in this set. We had to use at least 3 words from a song. In this case my choice of song was easy (and, no, I didn't know the challenge before I picked this film). James wrote and sang a song A Cappella about the back story of the film (and the words are below). For those who don't know the film, but worry about a couple of the scenes, the 2 of them do end up with a "happy" ending.
As ever, all are snaggable, but credit would be appreciated. The credits are available over at my icon journal -

ALONE
Well I alone in Averenth
With my lady by my side
After wars I left her
And now she’s come to watch me die
She’s a flower in the sun
Now she’s crawlin’ through the mud
‘Cause a me, ’cause a me
My heart was sick, from killin’ Injuns
With their babies in their beds.
I refused but my General
Put his gun up to my head.
I wanted to come home
So Abby wouldn’t live alone
So I killed, burned them down
I woke up, cold dark morning
Saw a face in the mirror
Realized what I was bringing home
Wasn’t worth bringing anymore.
I tried to heal my sores
With robbin’, whisky and whores
Didn’t work. I was still bad
Sheriff – put the noose right around me
Pull it tightly, snap my neck
Don’t want my love to see me strangle
When my soul’s all blown to heck
So I’m alone in Averenth
With my lady watchin’ me die
I don’t know if I could bear it
To see poor Abby cry one more time.
