Written sometime in 2010 in Vancouver, BC
Recorded in Austin, TX in December of 2012 at the Ghost House
lyrics
The sun is rising and
no matter how fast he drives,
it will never be enough to
outrun the thoughts
taking root inside his head
or to wash his bloody hands
clean enough to live again.
A shot in the dark and he is
wide awake, far too late,
aware now that it will all be over,
all be over soon.
There'll be no more running,
no more places left to hide
and he knows, and he knows
that he can't go back, he can
never go back again.
Going 80 on a one way road
he is hoping for a crash to
end it all and take away
the memories of a past he
can't forget...
A shot in the dark and he is
wide awake, far too late,
aware now that it will all be over,
all be over soon.
There'll be no more running,
no more places left to hide
and he knows, and he knows
that he can't go back, he can
never go back again.
