The situation is messed up
It seems like my luck has run out
I got in too deep and now I can't get out
I made some bad decisions, but my aim was always true
But now I'm flying off the path and don't know what to do
Got involved in some criminal behavior
Just pull a couple of jobs tryin' to make some paper
Lots of money changing hands, I decide to make some plans, skim a little off the top
And hope the boss will never find out
But that's when shit went sideways
And everything was not going my way
They all found out about the cash, they all wanna kill me now to get to my stash
And to make everything much worse
I'm in love with the boss's daughter, I'm cursed
Gotta pick her up and get outta town
Gotta head for the hills before it all goes down
Driving over 90, looking backwards
With a feeling like I'm never gonna make it out alive
Holding her hand tightly, trying to tell her
Don't worry cuz you know we're gonna make it out alive
But that's the thing, I'm living on borrowed time
I try to make her leave me but she's made up her mind
We got the bug out bag now we're truly on the run
Passports, fake IDs, money and guns
We hit a motel in the middle of the night
Gotta get some rest before we leave again at first light
The danger will be waiting but for now it's you and I
I gotta love like it's my last day alive
Touch like it's my last touch
She slips right through my clutch
Hold her close and breathe her in
Before I pay for my sins
We awake to the sound of car doors and voices circling the parking lot
We get dressed, grab our shit, check the windows
Guess it's time to what kinda luck we got
We sneak silently past the bushes then creep from parked car to parked car
I hear a shot and we run
I try to get the car started to the sound of more guns
And just when I think we have got this
That is when I feel the bullet hit me in the back, and then I scream
This is not f*cking happening
I suck it up and slam on the gas
We're back on the road but they're right on our ass
Lookin in the rear view, I'm trying to get a clear view, looks like the boss man was Pissed, he sent his whole crew
I loose them quick by flying through some red lights
Gotta get to safety got get outta sight
My girl is getting frantic and my shoulder's loosing blood
My vision's getting hazy, oh man I think I'm gonna pass out
I wake up in a room that I don't know
With a sling around my neck and elbow
The bleeding in my shoulder's no more
And just about that time my girl walks through the door
Her friend from college fixed me, but now we gotta go
Her father knows her habits and the places we would go
And just like that we're off again, in her friend's car
Back on the road, but we won't get far
She's driving under 80, trying to tell me
Don't worry babe you know we're gonna make it out alive
I'm loving her so deeply, trying not to tell her
There's no way I think we're gonna make it out alive
Touch like it's my last touch
She slips right through my clutch
Hold her close and breathe her in
Before I pay for my sins
And like that, all of his men are on us
Turns out her friend got scared and ratted on us
I hear my girl scream please father spare his life
They take the money and take my girl far away
Can't say goodbye or all the things that I want to say
I barely hear the final lecture as he raises the gun
