Story Behind the Song
Two guitars, two vocals, first take. Amazing where our "victim society" has delivered us.
Lyrics
she runs like steel through my veins
cold and real and unforgettable
silent eyes that speak her name,
two candles burned in vain
and voices that have said it all
was it love or was it better
like everything was just part of the curse
he didn't want her then,
and can't remember when
things could go so far from bad to worse
an easy target for the taking
sending history for more replay
and it was obvious, clear to all of us
one more reason why we can't go on this way
dark hands gripped upon the wheel
darkness covering her face
burdened with the crime,
'til she ran out of time
footprints left that lies could not erase
play for the camera, baby
cry and pray that the boys be found
no one notices the crooked line,
your own design
hiding while the water dragged
their bodies down
just for a moment, we charged away
to let the other ones alone awhile
and damn the darker side,
others could have tried
but that's really not our style
she's got a secret waiting
and weighing her down so low
and the innocence had a consquence
when she had nowhere left to go
she runs like steel through my veins
cold and real and unbelieveable
now in solitaire, alone and unaware
i guess we thought we'd seen it all
