Lyrics:

Billy's eyes were green and tinged with grey.
The pain he tried to hide, they betrayed.
I looked in his eyes and I knew
Just like me, Billy'd been abused.

We hooked up. Had a car and a gun.
We stole cash and liquor for fun.
We vowed we would never, ever hurt anyone.
Just a couple kids playin outlaws on the run.

We would lay entwined under the stars.
Drinkin ourselves silly on the hood of that old car.
In the backseat we'd forget the past.
Wrapped in each other's arms we could rest.

Alone we were nothin but broken bits.
Together our puzzle pieces seemed to fit.
Neither one of us knew how to love.
What we had was close enough.

Chorus:
All our lives we'd heard "you'll be nothin."
We set out to prove we could be something.
Acting bad was better than feelin sad.
We vowed to start our lives again.
Billy's eyes made me believe...in dreams.

Then one day we made a mistake.
It was bad. Billy had to kill a man.
I could feel the dream begin to fade.
When he reached for me. I turned away.

Billy's eyes began to rage and burn.
He reached a point inside of no return.
When he took my hand my life began.
The shot that killed his pain ended our plans.

Billy's eyes were green and tinged with grey.
I pray to see those eyes again someday.
His last look will always haunt me.
It was my hands held the gun that set him free.

Chorus: repeat
