Maria in the Desert (Acoustic Mix) Lyrics

The dream is over but

We keep sleeping on

At least you know what nothing means

Now everything is gone

These games we keep on playing

Out here where no one rules

Prayers they aren't worth saying to

These gods so burning cruel

But no one's asking

Any questions anymore

The answer's always nothing

That ain't freedom, that's for sure

You love your magic potions and

The smoke against your skin

Stole a red Ferrari

And you drove away from him

You hate to venture theory

About how the aces fall

Never known that siren's love

Without the siren's call

And all these beasts within this bedlam

Those that crawl beneath your toes

Waking with these bodies

You're pretending you don't know

I remember you once told me

That your heart was growing cold

Saving up your pennies

For these dreams that we were sold

So follow that coyote

Where the desert flower grows

Beneath this burning city

To the ending of this world

Elvis Presley got to Heaven

He sat by the door for years

King was just a name we gave

To all that we hold dear

Elvis got to Heaven

Sat by the door for years

King was just a name we gave

To all that we hold dear
