devil's tower from Reflected (2013) by Far Off Coast

the devil's tower in Wyoming
parking lot full of coyotes
never bled so red
might as well have painted the floor
and the chorus sounds
just for your pious soul

a yellow sundress and her hair in braids
freckles on her cheeks and our plans were made
got in the car and aimed for the setting sun
reborn again as two lovers on the run

well the cops got called and the paramedics came
the sheriff got my plates from a bystanders claim
saw our first set of cherries outside Sheridan
not proud of what i done but we needed a new gun

made it to Billings before the sun rose
Livingston, Bozeman, Butte just up the road
found an old dry creek to lay low and wait
counted 13 patrol cars on the interstate

Now, Angie was scared and she started to cry
told her it'd all be ok, we weren't gonna die
from a dingy little motel with walls all painted pink
rust stains in the shower and a cockroach in the sink

stole another lil cruiser and drove to Spokane
now we're heading up north up Canada way
Angie hasn't spoke a word to me all day
she wants to call her mom but I told her that wouldn't be safe

sped up on a roadblock just before Colville
came outta nowhere just over a hill
shotguns drawn over a concrete barricade
slammed the car in reverse as Angie - she just prayed

the devil's tower in Wyoming
parking lot full of coyotes
never bled so red might as well have painted the floor
and the chorus sounds
just for your pious soul
