Lyrics
Verse 1:
She was the Arizona desert.
And lived it through and through.
Had dust and grit in her soul.
And always looking for something new.
Verse 2:
Moon beams sparkled in her eyes.
With a thunderstorm in her heart.
She just got lost in the black sky.
Cause the sun rays pulled her apart.
Pre Chorus:
With its stars revealing dreams.
That she never dared to dream.
Eventually it all came true.
But she could barely breathe.
Chorus:
She marveled at the satellites.
And laid on the thick grass.
She just did not realize.
How quickly these moments would pass.
She marveled at the satellites.
And laid on the thick grass.
She just did not realize.
How quickly these moments would pass.
Verse 3:
She was young once.
And had bared all the brunt.
She was masking everything.
That happened behind closed doors.
Verse 4:
She jumped from the red rocks.
And into the Sedona creek.
She laid amongst many spiders.
But bolted from rattlesnakes sunbathing by her feet.
Pre Chorus:
With its stars revealing dreams.
That she never dared to dream.
Eventually it all came true.
But she could barely breathe.
Chorus:
She marveled at the satellites.
And laid on the thick grass.
She just did not realize.
How quickly these moments would pass.
She marveled at the satellites.
And laid on the thick grass.
She just did not realize.
How quickly these moments would pass.
Bridge:
She jailed a man for things.
That she’d rather not expose.
Some memories are best shuttered.
Into a corner no one knows.
She felt some comfort.
From the coyote cries at night.
At the possibility of a ghost.
She got lost in the black sky.
Chorus:
She marveled at the satellites.
And laid on the thick grass.
She just did not realize.
How quickly these moments would pass.
She marveled at the satellites.
And laid on the thick grass.
She just did not realize.
How quickly these moments would pass.
Outro:
So many stories this woman could tell.
But those who lived through the war.
They would tell her to go to hell.
So she stayed silent for a bit more.
And now it is all she has.
So she's revealing her truth.
Unleashes her rage.
And taking back her youth.
