Yellow lines in the dead of the night
Oh, I was heading back out west
Trying to keep my eyes open wide
I´d gone days without any rest

Saw him lying in the road looking bad
About 20 yards ahead
You come back from a trip to the East
But you don´t come back from the dead

Sure as hell, he was dead as they come
And he was already starting to smell
Just a kid with his hair slicked back
And a knife tucked into his belt

Was he unforgiven or just tired of living a life
That never felt like his?
Though I was was worn and weary, I thought I´d bury him
And lay his soul to rest out in the desert night

I laid him down in a grave in the sand
And he grabbed my arm with his dead man´s hand

He said: "I know I´m dead, but I don´t wanna lie
In a grave out here where the coyotes cry
I stared right into the endless void
And I ain´t going back if I got any choice
I know how to live, I don´t know how to die
And there ain´t no thrills in the afterlife

So lift me up out of here, my friend
And I´ll wander the night till the ages end"
Lit by the moon, he walked through the sand
And he waved goodbye with his dead man´s hand

And he will roam forever, haunting the desert
And he will roam forever, haunting the desert
