desert town - jim caroll lyrics

Loading...

i hitched a ride to a desert town
(i never planned this trip)
i saw my past in the sun like a tongue
(that slowly dripped)
people faced me with lazarus eyes
they were red and dazed like fat horse flies
i was lost in twelve directions
i was searching for my own reflection

in a desert town i found
a future old and broke like roman ruins
i been turned around it’s true
the postage past is due
this heat is twisted like a knife

i got the picture but i lost the frame
(where did it begin)
thought i was holy but that’s not the case
im just too tired to sin
sun glistening like a frightened fist
this lat-tude doesnt’t’t exist

in a desert town i found
nothing is going to be the way it should
what i thought i lost i could get back
take the blade and hack my way back to another day

instant that, instant this, instant that, instant this . . .

in a desert town i found
a future old and broke like roman ruins
i been turned around it’s true
the postage past is due
this heat is twisting like a knife

in a desert town the sound
whispers like like the women at the well
in this dry high wind i bend
like a cactus in the sand
im waiting, waiting for your hand
