Lyrics to The Desert Won't Save You Ain't got no money for your pretty things Don't need no pity just listen to me Girl you got taste but you got lyin eyes There's a strong desert wind And its creepin, creepin in Across the waves across the sky
The taste, on your lips feel the blood drip down to your open hands Her eyes, witches eyes They'll steal the only soul that you've ever known
As we walk down this desert road Feel the sun leech life from my bones We both know, there's no turning back
As the vultures fly overhead Ah they're circlin' circlin' the dead Place your blame down, no one's goin home
Evenings dawn spread across the tapestry of the sky Watchful eyes, never knowing quite what they mean Careful footseps on the waking of the dawn Watch

They ain't comin' for me, ah babe Our time has come, just let me be
