    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
