You found me turned loose

 on the highway

A few seconds sooner

 and you’d have found my hideaway

My bruises are black now

...my scratches are permanent lines

Journeyed beyond the saguaros

Reached the mountain lines

Saw you

Turned the truck around

You said tell me where it is

and I won’t shoot

You said tell me where it is

You won’t shoot

It’s in the ground

Where in the ground

Journey beyond the saguaros

Reach the mountain lines
