When I was younger I used to pray That my family would move out of the heats way And my heart would be saved From all the Sunrays I wanted to leave before the summers got to me And dried all the water left inside to see And destroy everything I once believed Because the desert was once a sea Now left to be Just the Suns relief But I will never be the flower that grows by the trees I only know the desert rat That dwells inside of me

Desert rat
When I was younger I used to pray That my family would move out of the heats way And my heart would be saved From all the Sunrays I wanted to leave before the summers got to me And dried all the water left inside to see And destroy everything I once believed Because the desert was once a sea Now left to be Just the Suns relief But I will never be the flower that grows by the trees I only know the desert rat That dwells inside of me
