In God's Country lyrics

Desert sky, dream beneath the desert sky

The rivers run, but soon run dry

We need new dreams tonight

Desert rose, dreamed I saw a desert rose

Dress torn in ribbons and bows

Like a siren she calls to me

Sleep comes like a drug in God's country

Sad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country

Set me alight, we'll punch a hole right through the night

Every day the dreamers die to see what's on the other side

She is liberty, and she comes to rescue me

Hope, faith, her vanity, the greatest gift is gold

Sleep comes like a drug in God's country

Sad eyes, crooked crosses, in God's country

Naked flame, she stands with a naked flame

I stand with the sons of Cain

Burned by the fire of love
