lyrics

Desert Palm

I never expected to break you
But I hoped to take your power away
There's a madness in your head
Driven by fragility
The cancer in your mental machine, yeah

Decorated with ribbons and rope
All that metal, and no real love for you
There's a fire on the sound
And when this shit comes back around
One day they'll be coming for you in the morning

Chorus 1:
When California burns like a desert palm
When the rivers open up wider to drown
When greed start to pull your daughters down
Will you, will you believe me now?
Will you, will you believe me now?

I didn't think that I would change your mind
But I was tired of faking being on your side
God magnifies the lowly, see you crawling through the needle
And you just want to crush them underfoot

Chorus 2:
Oh, when tyranny puts us on the move
When you slam the door 'cause they don't look like you
Can't you see we're all coming home to roost?
Will you, will you believe me now?
Will you, will you believe me now?

Solo, Chorus 1
