Eli - New Desert Blues

I whistle like the winter call you in

My breath in your face is so white

Like the dark moon that glows I barely known

Your sons and your daughters and wife

I speak with the trees and I believe

What people are sayin 'bout me

I hide in the dark and question my heart

The stories untold about me

There’s a devil hanging on

Devil hanging on my back

He won’t take the wolf away from the pack

There’s a shadow coming near

The home we made with our blood

We can’t make the river run through the flood

Shout the name make them thick 'till it’s deep

I can fill my own ocean with the filth, no sleep

I watch them bleed onto everything

And the dust is unsettled with the steps of their feet

There’s a devil hanging on

Devil hanging on my back

He won’t take the wolf away from the pack

There’s a shadow coming near

The home we made with our blood

We can’t make the river run through the flood

[Instrumental

There’s a devil hanging on

Devil hanging on my back

He won’t take the wolf away from the pack

There’s a shadow coming near

The home we made with our blood

We can’t make the river run through the flood
