Lyrics
Desert
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.
She sends a message, scary communication
She never speaks a word, and we take from what we see
It's so sad to say she's got obligations
The thought of leaving deserts, it kills the honesty
Spread the disease (We take from what we see)
We're down on our knees (it kills the honesty)
Search for the answers
But you fill our heads with lies
It's just not right, you ran out of time
Standing with your back to the river's edge
Only when it's dried, would you flee for your life
Even with your back to the river, back to the river?
Got the advantage of a blood-thirsty nation
She never speaks a word, and we take from what we see
It's so sad it makes for good conversation
The talk of leaving deserts, it kills the honesty
Search for the answers
But you fill our heads with lies
It's just not right, you ran out of time
Standing with your back to the river's edge
Only when it's dried, would you flee for your life
Even with your back to the river, back to the river?
It's just not right, you ran out of time
Standing with your back to the river's edge
Only when it's dried, would you flee for your life
Even with your back to the river, back to the river?
So you know, now it's broke
Find your own miracle
Because you're chocking on your alibis
Now you know that it's broke
Find your own miracle
Because you filled our heads with lies
It's just not right, you ran out of time
Standing with your back to the river's edge
Only when it's dried, would you flee for your life
Even with your back to the river, back to the river?
It's just not right, you ran out of time
Standing with your back to the river's edge
Only when it's dried, would you flee for your life
Even with your back to the river, back to the river?
Back to the river, back to the river
Back to the river
