16 days in the canyon
Saddled up and broken down
Distant mistake my only companion
(I look up) My dying fate circles around

What do you do, when you can′t break through?
You better run for your life
Don't think twice, it don′t look nice
You should've run for your life

Never lived clean but wanted the best
Chased the purest dreams so he headed west
The trail stays hard when you're on the run
He took a good man down, then he took another one

It′s what you do when you can′t break through
You should've run for your life
Now you′ve been shot twice, and it don't look nice
You should′ve run for your life

Can't get back

A mother′s heart weeps for eternity
Another son she will never see
She prayed for him and she prayed for them all
And then they realized he had paid it all

It's what they do, "could you? "
I bet you run for your life
It's nothing new, "would you? "
I bet you run for your life
