[ Featuring The Desert Dogs ]
The desert pierces your heart like a stone
As you feel all the sharpness from the cold
They say your heart should be light
But there is no love on this dark winter night
A man rides his horse through the town
As he hears all the cheers from the crowd
He had just won his first rodeo
He ain't even feeling like a hero
As he enters that empty house
Where you could hear the sound of a mouse
There's an emptiness deep down in his soul
He is tired of feeling so damn alone
Now the whole world knows his name
He's got all the glory and the fame
But when he finally gets back home
He finds a bed with no one to hold
So he puts that gun to his head
And paints the wall with a gory red
With a note that says in his heart is a hole
That man just couldn't take it anymore
