lyrics
pounding dust 'til the sunlight wanes
circle up the horses, cool our veins
making camp as the darkness creeps
I swear I heard a howl in the canyons deep
on the watch, and I crave the dawn
long ago the moon and stars had gone
eye adjust, scream "this ain't no drill,
there's something come for us down from the hills"
saddle up buttercup
clutch the reins with all your might
lest we heed the tumbleweeds
frozen under empty skies
feel the roar of orphaned thunder and away we ride
it's goblin night
long ago left the fire in haste
shot across the desert, grueling pace
has it been hours? it feel like days
the sun's withdrawn the dawn, on and on we race
ragged breaths, tasting death
running cuz we cannot hide
pray my steed don't break and bleed
torn asunder desert blight
as we tear into the blackness I can hear their cries
it's goblin night
oh jezebel, my compass was your eyes
dark caramel
oh jezebel, it's time to say goodbye
I won't dwell
oh jezebel, you saw through my disguise
eased off the shell
oh jezebel, I understand your sighs
I'm not well
whiskey dry and the water's black
pony rode to bones, her hide is cracked
on we ride to forevermore
I can't remember now how it was before
