I'm scared of the cool river cause it drags a little deeper everyday
The last sight of a bruised freighter as it gives it's broken body to the grave
I wanna ride through the desert on the only road that knows my name
I wanna fly into Austin in the cradle of a midnight plane
My skin is a dead language
A birthmark and a lexicon of scars
And when I go I'll be unspoken
A breath between the streetlamps and the stars
I wanna ride through the desert on the only road that knows my name
I wanna fly into Austin in the cradle of a midnight plane
My heart is a firedancer and it's spinning in a cold, cold space
And your eyes are the fire's answer to the winter breathing darkly at the gates
I wanna ride through the desert on the only road that knows my name
I wanna fly into Austin in the cradle of a midnight plane
I wanna ride through the desert on the only road that knows my name
I wanna fly into Austin in the cradle of a midnight plane
