Siouxsie and the Banshees
Desert Kisses
[Verse 1]
Desert kisses in the sand
Engulfing joints, engulfing land
Tidal fingers cling to rocks
A deadly grip, a deadly lock

[Chorus]
Cursed and pissed into the ocean
Wilfully caused a great commotion
But only for a stifled moment
Then it was back to still life motion

[Verse 2]
A sideways crawl, a sideways scrawl
The cancer crab is on us all
I kissed your face, I kissed the sand
I heard you sigh, there was no sound

[Chorus]
Thrashed and spat back at the ocean
But there was nothing, no commotion
Just my lonely, stupid notions
Trapped again in still life motion

[Bridge]
Sinking down with just my sound
Sinking down running on the moving ground
Sinking down
Sinking down without a sound
Sinking down sleeping on the moving ground
Sinking down
[Verse 3]
Desert kisses in the sand
Engulfing joints, engulfing land
Tidal fingers cling to rocks
A deadly grip, a deadly lock

[Chorus]
Sinking down, the world is round
Sinking down, there's no-one around
Standing on the moving ground
Sinking down, the world is flat
There's no-one here to question that

[Outro]
Sinking down without a sound
Sinking down
Sinking down, the world was round
There was no-one around
Sinking down
