Reno

You rode into Reno
With a flat tire and matches

All his clothes soaked in fumes
When blood were his tools 

He heard a few stories
Of premium interest

Couldn't turn his back on it yet
He had friends he could hound 


He didn't know it yet
But sipping away on something

He didn't hear it
Until there was no one around


She fell into phoenix
With barely a presence 

Hard rain followed 
Harder onto the highways

The daughter kettle was sleeping
And the street lights were curious

Who was this woman
Who keeps her headlights off

She didn't know it
But slipping away off something

She didn't hear it 
Until there was no one around

She said I want to ride
Out of this valley

Feel the cool wind
Off my face

I know it
Moving in tomorrow

But tonight I'll think 
on the absence of fears

And tonight was weeping
A torrent against them

She was feeling some remorse 
As she slipped down the road

Her pockets were empty
And here's what got heavy

That they both had to run 
from something that they left


Knowing that I will be everything around me
And everything around me will complete me too



He said I want to ride 
out of this valley

Feel the cool wind
Of my face
