Sun

I am the forgotten one
A bleached skull staring at the sun
I’m sleeping in the desert’s skin
Where I now call my home
You could almost feel my fate
You could almost see my fate
I’m walking all day and night
With the coyotes in moonlight
You think you see water
But there is no water
You think you see God
Only dirt, only rock
Lonely sun, lonely rot
I am the forgotten one
In these bloody clothes scabbed by the sun
I’m praying every night and day
To the buzzards and the snakes
You could almost see my fate
You could almost feel my fate
I’ve been walking every day and night
With spiders in the moonlight
You think you see water
But there is no water
You think you see God
Only dirt, only rock
Lonely sun, lonely rot
Only dirt, only rock
Lonely sun, lonely rot
Only dirt, only rock
Lonely sun, lonely rot
Only dirt, only rock
Lonely sun, lonely rot
Only dirt, only rock
Lonely sun, lonely rot
