Burden In My Hand lyrics

Follow me into the desert

As thirsty as you are

Crack her smile and cut your mouth

And drown in alcohol

'Cause down below the truth is lying

Beneath the riverbed

So quench yourself and drink the water

That flows below her head

Oh no, there she goes

Out in the sunshine, the sun is mine

I shot my love today, would you cry for me?

I lost my head again, would you lie for me?

Close your eyes and bow your head

I need a little sympathy

'Cause fear is strong and love's for everyone

Who isn't me

Kill your health and kill yourself

And kill everything you love

And if you live you can fall to pieces

And suffer with my ghost

I shot my love today, would you cry for me?

I lost my head again, would you lie for me?

I left her in the sand - just a burden in my hand

I lost my head again, would you cry for me?

It's just a burden in my hand

It's just an anchor on my heart

It's just a tumor in my head

I'm in the dark

So follow me into the desert

As desperate as you are

Where the moon is glued to a picture of heaven

And all the little pigs have God

Oh no, there she goes

Out in the sunshine, the sun is mine

The sun is mine

I shot my love today, would you cry for me?

I lost my head again, would you lie for me?

I left her in the sand - just a burden in my hand

I lost my head again, would you cry for me?

Would you cry for me?
