Oh, when it's god I see in headlights kneeling down on frozen highways
And salvation in white knuckles on a wheel
And the deer is in the audience by the border of the darkness
Where forgiveness grows and slowly winds away
Well there's a question somewhere asked with all the answers inside
But I'll never find the kid before she's gone
Well the day is never done, but there's a light on where you're sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
But now the ghost is in my jacket and my stairs were built in anger
Winding forcefully but end up where I stand
But there are no rocks or salt and nails, I low my cannons not to kill you
Simply lost the words to tell you I'm afraid
And there's a sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
Well the sign will tell you, "Turn if there's a one"
Still the day is never done, but there's a light on where you're sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
Oh darling, when it's you I see in headlights, driving down the golden highway
And salvation in the beauty of some brace
And the deer is gone without me to the valley of surrender
There is still another world along it's tracks
But there's that sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
Well the sign will say, "There's still a higher one"
And now the day is slowly setting, and the lights on where you're sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
And salvation in white knuckles on a wheel
And the deer is in the audience by the border of the darkness
Where forgiveness grows and slowly winds away
Well there's a question somewhere asked with all the answers inside
But I'll never find the kid before she's gone
Well the day is never done, but there's a light on where you're sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
But now the ghost is in my jacket and my stairs were built in anger
Winding forcefully but end up where I stand
But there are no rocks or salt and nails, I low my cannons not to kill you
Simply lost the words to tell you I'm afraid
And there's a sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
Well the sign will tell you, "Turn if there's a one"
Still the day is never done, but there's a light on where you're sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone
Oh darling, when it's you I see in headlights, driving down the golden highway
And salvation in the beauty of some brace
And the deer is gone without me to the valley of surrender
There is still another world along it's tracks
But there's that sign up to a hill to see the far of the land
Well the sign will say, "There's still a higher one"
And now the day is slowly setting, and the lights on where you're sleeping
So I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone

He knows he will probably not meet her ("But I'll never find the kid before she's gone"), but he also knows that she'll be somewhere in town ("There's a light on where you're sleeping") and it's almost like he's saying "well, I'm sorry that we never got to meet one another, but I hope that my music helped to cheer you up a little" with his "so I hope somewhere that troubles will be gone".
I could be entirely wrong, and the rest of the lyrics don't really fit this story, but I still like to think this could be the meaning of the first verse and chorus.
For example: the connections drawn between the deer and who he's addressing, in the climax of the song. It's as though his 'darling' is a deer in headlights while he's driving down the golden highway. Is he confronting her about something, prompting her deer-in-headlights reaction? Or is he speaking from the point of view of a driver about to hit a deer on the road, i.e., expressing some sort of panic or danger that /he/ feels? After all, the song talks about forgiveness and anger; there's presumably been some tension between the two of them. And how about that deer itself—it's almost like a spirit or spectral being of some sort, dwelling first by the border of the darkness and then leaving him to go to the valley of surrender . . . Eerie and compelling, but for the life of me I still can't figure out what it might mean!
And the final verse about the day (finally) slowly setting is such a terrific way to include a sense of catharsis, considering that he'd previously mentioned how the day never reaches its end. We can get some sleep, and indeed we can hope for higher lands, and for our troubles to be gone. Incredible.
Winding forcefully but end up where I stand
But there are no rocks or salt and nails, I low my cannons not to kill you
SImply lost the words to tell you I'm afraid
blew my mind today... dunno if anyone is with me on that.
P.S i think its i load my cannons not low
Unexplainable.
