Can't Go Back

No one seems to know your face

as you step into the coach.

You sit by the window

and you look out at the road

but you don't look back at where you've been,

you just look at where you're going.

You can't go back to where you were at

and you know why you've got to ride

and you've got to run.

You tell yourself you never killed anyone

because it wasn't your hand holding the gun

but people are dead because of what you've done.

You can't go back to where you were at.

and you know why you've got to ride.

Only you know the lies you told

and the lines you sold to get them to sign

on the bottom line.

When the deed was done you had to run.

When you got your cut you didn't stick around

to see the hammer come down,

and no matter how far you run you never can

wash the blood from your hands,

and every mirror you look at on your way

shows you a killer's face.

You can't go back to where you were at.
