Lyrics
Desert Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Dark 'n' dirty like you never seen.
A mind all twisted with thoughts so unclean.
My heart is racing all tattered and torn.
I stand here naked as the day I was born.
Only the lonely will stand.
I'm holding the world in my hand.
I got to believe!
The sky is falling on this setting sun.
Echoes of silence ringing loud and long.
This isolation is the king of pain.
A lost horizon in an ocean of flames.
repeat CHORUS
Yeah, oh.
Bridge: I've been here before, but not as I stand here today.
I wait for the dawn.
Ready to walk into the light.
