The devil, and his angels, came riding through
The heat of the street knocked me out
He said come on, are you with us
But I was dying in the drought
Its only a mile to the sea
In a little while we'll be free
Should I go, to the desert, to the lizard's lair
Or try to make it to the coast
If you were here, stood beside me, breathing my air
Which way would you go
You say you're alone but your not
You say it's so low where you are
You say you're alone but you're not
Because I'm watching you drop
You tore your only friend apart
Aimed your cannons at my heart
But nothing died, I'm still alive
I was strong as one but now I'm five
The dust wont settle in this town
There willl be no calm when I'm around
Nothing bled, No on died
Come here and say
All that you've been
Wanting to say to me
Don't look surprised
That look in your eyes
Betrays you
You want it
Come and get it
I've seen you strut around
Shaking like you own this town
You need it
You still believe it
But when the time it comes
You'll be the first to hide behind your guns
Come here and say
All that you've been
Wanting to say to me
Don't look surprised
That look in your eyes
Betrays you
You want it
Come and get it
I've seen you strut around
Shaking like you own this town
You need it
You still believe it
But when the time it comes
You'll be the first to hide behind your guns
In a lonely dust bowl
When everyone had fled
There was no horizon
The earth and the sky were red
We'll take our chances
Lie on the soil with me
And say what you see
There's a man with smile
As he runs under the sun
As it shines through the leaves
In the valley below the sun
Oh my love
Where did you go
How on earth did you know
In a lonely dust bowl
When everyone had fled
There was no horizon
The earth and the sky were red
We'll take our chances
Lie on the soil with me
And say what you see
There's a man with smile
As he runs under the sun
As it shines through the leaves
In the valley below the sun
Oh my love
Where did you go
How on earth did you know
