How can you imply
That I'd leave you behind?
Do you really think that I
Am quite that wise?

I try to be the beast
And side with what lies least
But in my mind I find
Holes the size of Dust bowl

Dust Bowl
Makes me wonder why I try
To coddle
And care for
The rusting chains connecting you and I

The days just turn themselves
Like pages in a book
Falling from the shelf
Into the fire

I try to do the right thing
And give back what I took
But in the end it's all pretend
I'm just a liar in Dust Bowl
Dust Bowl
Makes me wonder how I knew
I'd borrow
And battle
Through every memory that I spent with you
