There seems to be 6 people in this song , The "three good buddies" in the back of a rented Ford. The friend of the three good buddies telling most of the story, that some how knows the story without actually being there. That's 4 people
The "driver" of the car, and "the other guy", both in the front seats. These are people 5 and 6.
Bags and scales would suggest a drug deal for Pot gone bad.
The Driver and other guy are the bad guys, with the other guy being the blood spiller.
For most of this song, this story is told in 3rd tense, by the friend of the three good buddies. This friend some who some how knows the story, but doesn't look to be there, maybe God or some spirit.
In the last verse the tense changes to first person, to one of the three good buddies, the one who is still alive, but expecting to die soon. He will soon be breathing dry air, he will become a skeleton. The last three lines are probably just sarcastic humour.
