Desert Roses

[Verse]
Woke up in a wasteland shadows stalk my mind
Dusty trails and broken dreams always hard to find
Cactus whispers secrets dry as desert bones
Heart’s a loaded shotgun echoes through the stones
[Verse 2]
Runnin’ down the highway sweat and whiskey burn
Neon lights and bar fights lessons never learn
Smoke and ashes memories everything’s a blur
Sirens cryin’ in the night can’t escape the stir
[Chorus]
Desert roses bleeding thorns out in the sun
Burning questions screaming answers never come
Dust and shadows always chase us on the run
Grit and glory shattered hope forever done
[Verse 3]
Moonlight on a broken bike engine howls the tune
Rusty chains and battle scars dancing with the moon
Lost souls ride together never looking back
Gravel paths and empty skies cutting me no slack
[Bridge]
Sweat and dirt and heartbreak tangled in our hair
Every night’s a showdown does anybody care
Whispers of the wind now carving through our souls
Rock ‘n roll salvation breaks these heavy holes
[Chorus]
Desert roses bleeding thorns out in the sun
Burning questions screaming answers never come
Dust and shadows always chase us on the run
Grit and glory shattered hope forever done
