the holy desert blooms

from the colors and the kill by sad accordions

lyrics

see the river run
run into the hills
cuts a line between
the colors and the kill
leaves them torn apart
separate and flanked
by the sky, lit cold and stark
unfolded like the face
of our arid unmarked parts

i will often wake
in the thicket of the night
with an open wound
inside my heated mind
where a certain voice has sway
over any peace or bliss
and she will see me hanged
for all my dead promises
for all the days that i tried

my love take off your shoes
we don't need them to run
meet me on the roof
on the surface of the sun
where we will always burn
and we may never learn
but we will never turn
no we will never turn
we will never turn
we'll stand our ground and burn
we'll die and then return
then our love will be true
and my Self will be through
and all my old ways will be new
and my "i"s will all be "you"s

in my darkest breath
in the longest hour
in my time of need
my holy desert flower
