Desperation Burns

Hate to say, but we've looked on better days It took me by surprise We left our quiet home behind The castaways drag the lake The desperation burns Raise the alarm Un-close your eyes Desperation You never sang so sweetly 'til you whispered in my ear Never heard a sound but I could hear The hatchet-man dusting off his sleeve Spilt my blood and drank my dreams And stopped the spinning wheels Wash away the bitter taste The desperation burns Raise the alarm Un-close your eyes Desperation The last one flew Just out of sight If it throws you away Sit back and enjoy the ride Raise the alarm Un-close your eyes Desperation burns --- Desperation Burns - Baroness
