Lyrics
Desperation has a funny worth
Eyes rolling forward at the mind's rebirth
Desperation is a friend at hand
The reach for touch in this arid land
Oh, but you, you know what you do
Yeah you, and your dancing shoes
Oh you, so good at writing tomorrow
You do anything you want to
Desperation is the things we miss
It's the asteroid, it's the final kiss
Desperation is the disconnect
The warring sighs for some self-respect
Oh, but you, you are so beautifully wired
Yeah you, and your dancing shoes
Oh you, so good at being desired
You do anything you want to
Everything we miss
Everything we miss
Desperation was my sanctuary
The Empire State of my sanity
Desperation is a counterstrike
Against the giants and the rats alike
Oh, but you, you go clear of the shadows
Yeah you, and your dancing shoes
Oh you, so good at writing tomorrow
Would you take me with you?
You, you
Desperation
