lyrics

You never know how long it lasts
You just sink into it so fast
Now you got me running on the highway
And there’s dust in my teeth
And it’s dark in the east
And I’m digging in and beginning to breathe

And I don’t wanna be the only one

This repetition of livin as got me low
You say you’re seeking but I don’t know
So Ive been lookin, trying to find the reason
That there’s dust in my teeth
And it’s dark in the east
I’m digging in and beginning to breathe

But I don’t wanna be the only one
You seen it coming like the desert sun
Rattling chains and rattling guns
And I don’t wanna be the only one

So call your mother and the mind inside your head
How can you grow when you are so firmly planted?
And I’ve been lookin, trying to find the reason
That there’s dust in my teeth
And it’s dark in the east
Well I’m digging in and we’re beginning to breathe
