Desert Lyrics - Singles - Throwing Muses

( Elaine Adamedes ) 

Dying in the desert he is dreaming of the water down the bathroom drain, 

Thinking of the oceans and the rain. 

What are you doing with your time? 

He's using it to elongate his mind (elongate his mind) 

It moves (and stretches with the curves and lines) and it gives 

Tongue is made of paper sickly whitish and his eyes no longer see the 

light. 

Language has been stripped of him for good. 

Slowly he seems to sidestep time 

and using it he elongates his mind (elongates his mind) 

It moves and gives 

Miles and miles of body then he's tiny just a grain then he exists no 

more 

Funeral tears that might have saved his life 

Squeezing he slips to ride with time 

And using it he elongates his mind (elongates his mind) 

It moves and gives.
