Lyrics:
Crawl through the desert
of thistle and bone
Thunder and darkness
murmur and moan
Something sacred
scratched in the sand
Another artifact in the promised land
The border town changed my life
at the end of the day
in the dead of the night
when the moon's just right
I can see you there
leave the world without a care
Call on the spirit for a
new kind of prayer
Old time religion
don't work out there
I am falling backwards
into the sea
I feel the darkness
staring back at me
The border town changed my life
at the end of the day
on the edge of the night
when the moon's just right
I can see you there
leave the world without a care
Pray for me Saint Teresa
Pray for me
when the sun goes down
Pray for me Saint Teresa
Spread my ashes
on the burying ground
Leave the world without a sound...
