Fishtailing cross white lines
God’s in Headlights in the dark pines
Snow closing on each side
Lord Guide me through this one last ride
Something got loose a while ago
Couldn’t drink it back in place
Where there was a home and family
Now there’s just an empty space
Another pretty little girl is waiting
But it’s been lonesome all the way
She can’t stop my pain from recreating
And I know it’s far too late to pray
And I know it’s far too late to pray
Kid in the front seat’s breath is steaming
He’s got a bright light Halo I can see it gleaming
Arm full of morphine soothe me away
Don’t wanna go but too tired to stay
And as the gleaming starts to fade
Tells me it’s time to fly
Remember me in the chords I played
Let me sing you a last goodbye
