Lyrics

How Hard It Is for a Desert to Die

[Verse 1]

I hear your laugh in my laughter

An old photograph that I've never seen

Where each set of eyes finds a different camera

Shining like the sun on the rain

[Verse 2]

I follow the wires to the horizon

There's zero chance that I'm gonna cry

I think that fame is a misunderstanding

How hard is it for a desert to die?
