Desert
Damien Jurado
Tell me when tomorrow comes
I'll be the first to ride
Start the car and honk the horn
I'll be right outside
Pour a drink and open wide
I have things to tell
I have seen the brighter side
Of the roads that lead to Hell
Yesterday is miles away
You'll miss it if you blink
I found my salvation in
The places where you drink
You can say you're on my side
I know that's a lie
'Cause given the chance you'd stab my back
And leave me here to die
Just give me the keys tonight
I'm happy when I drive
Revenge is a perfect word
For what I have in mind
Desert lives bring deserted lives
I know from first hand
We're moved around like circus clowns
When laughter's ending now
