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
