Lyrics Dirt - New Desert Blues

Dirt

I’ll keep my eyes on the dirt
You keep your eyes on the seed
I want to know why it hurts
I want to know why I bleed
I’ll be leaving, alone
You keep me close to the edge
I want to know how it feels
I wanna see how I die
I need to know you can kill
I’m still leaving, alone
You bring me closer to hell
I find it easy to breathe
I think you’re starting to tell
My words from a mean little thing
Show me something, to give
You left your marks on my skin
I left my name in your head
You know some things stay hidden
When you’re broken or dead
Show me the way, to live
And I hear your voice
God knows I veiled to be
How did I be your choice?
We making marks in the dirt
I’ll be leaving alone
You pull me out of the shade
Drag me into the sun
You destroy all that I make
Tell me that it’ll work
Wipe the look off, my face
You tie me down to the track
You throw me under the bus
I make the most of my life
I watch you happily run
Something sweeter, to taste
And I hear your voice
God knows I veiled to be
How did I be your choice?
Heartbreaks and changes seed
I would learn to hint
Why we really need to know
Make the hand disappear
Making marks in the dirt
I’ll be leaving alone
And I hear your voice
God knows I veiled to be
How did I be your choice?
Heartbreaks and changes seed
I would learn to hint
Why we really need to know
Make the hand disappear
Making marks in the dirt
I’ll be leaving alone
