THIS COUNTRY IS KILLING ITS DREAMS
IT'S LIKE A COMPLETE UNKNOWN
THAT WAKES YOU UP FOR THE SOUND OF A TICKET AS AN ANSWER
I KNOW
EVERY LINE YOU'LL STAND FOR WILL KEEP ME UP INSIDE
BUT I KNOW
EVERY LINE IS LONESOME WITH A BROKEN HEART

I SEE DESIRE WORKING OUT TO RUNAWAY
COME BACK AND TELL ME WHO YOU ARE
I SEE DESIRE WORKING OUT TO RUNAWAY
COME BACK AND TELL ME WHO YOU ARE

I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THEY TRUST US
THERE'S NO TALE WE NEED TO STAND FOR
SOME STARTED BUILDING A WALL THAT PEOPLE CAN'T EMBRACE
I KNOW
EVERY LINE YOU'LL STAND FOR WILL KEEP ME UP INSIDE
BUT I KNOW
EVERY LINE IS LONESOME WITH A BROKEN HEART

I SEE DESIRE WORKING OUT TO RUNAWAY
COME BACK AND TELL ME WHO YOU ARE
I SEE DESIRE WORKING OUT TO RUNAWAY
COME BACK AND TELL ME WHO YOU ARE

AND I SCREAM HOW DO YOU FEEL TO KEEP YOU LIVING IN ME
AND I KNOW YOU'RE OFF THE SHELTER 
TO SEE WHAT WE LOVED TO SEE HERE
AND I CALL YOU AS AN ANSWER 'CAUSE I DON'T BELIEVE THEY WILL

I SEE DESIRE WORKING OUT TO RUNAWAY
COME BACK AND TELL ME WHO YOU ARE
I SEE DESIRE WORKING OUT TO RUNAWAY
COME BACK AND TELL ME WHO YOU ARE

I SEE DESIRE TO RUN
I SEE DESIRE TO RUNAWAY
I SEE DESIRE
