The desert skies are filled with stars
As far as you can dream
A parachute of lights that bloom
Across the sky's tree
Down here on the ground
How free am I?
Like a crow, I wish my soul
To rise and fly
(Chorus)
Here's a promise/ There's a lie
God knows heaven's in disguise
The desert wind is blowing strong
Over hills and far beyond
All I know is all that's gone
With poisoned toungues the demons come
To live inside your brain
Like neon lights/ The stars shine bright
To make me feel again
Down here on the ground
How free am I?
Like a crow I wish my soul
To rise and fly
(Chorus)
I make a wish
I count to three
I don't believe in what I can't see
So Jesus come back and die again
For me
Here's a promise/ There's a lie
God knows heaven's in disguise
Because it ain't on the ground
And it ain't in the sky
The desert wind is blowing strong
Over hills and far beyond
All I know is all that's gone
All I know
All I know .....
