Dusty Boots And Flashy Rust

from The Complexity Of Things by Michael Ellis

/

lyrics

somewhere around western sands uncharted grounds
there was a small forgotten town
within the plains without property or names
i met you one time around

dreams were all you had on you
along with lack of sanity

one day you will drown
oh one day you will go down
one day you walk right back into our town

as we became the kings of the plains
i trusted you inside my bed
when i was unsound you knocked me down
took from me everything i had

dreams are all what's left to me
and the craving for revenge

and somewhere within the dusty
boots and flashy rust
i knew that something wasn't right
and somewhere in between
carpet and firescreen
something was hiding from the light

dreams were strong and colourful
nothing was standing in the way

one day you will drown
oh one day you will go down
one day you walk right back into our town
