My throat is dry
My feet are sore
Looked in a thousand eyes
But there's nothing here for me no more
It's like a desert
It's like a desert to me
Will I learn to crawl
Like I learnt to cry
Will I get to sleep
And stop asking why
It's like a desert
It's like a desert to me
And this place won't let me be
It rattles in my head
And the dryness and the dust
Are in every word I've said
When it's time I'll leave
My bones to the birds in the square
And join my friends who breathe
A cleaner kind of air
It's like a desert
It's like a desert to me (2x)
