Broken Yoke in Western Sky

Lyrics
Broken yoke in western sky, my stomach turned, my mouth went dry I knew I'd never known fear before, I press my bones into the seat, took one last look at you next to me I kicked open the sliding door and I threw myself out on torn flesh and broken bones and on the shoulders patchy grass; I faded into your past I know it was a cowardly thing to do and that an explanation is not an excuse I just want to understand that love is only a type of greed of equal portions want and need and you cannot divorce the two and I could not sleep at all with all the rumble strip close calls in the gravel and scattered trash; I faded into your past when you think twice you arrive at the same conclusion it's bad advice only if you use it Broken yoke in western sky, my stomach turned, my mouth went dry.
