Ask The Dust
[What, what is it that you want?][What is it that you want?]
She don't lift her head for nothing
She don't lift her head for no one
30 years have glazed her eyes
Her tongue is dry from asking why
Why [why] all my ideas
Peel and turn to rust [why]
Why I feel I must
I guess I'll ask the dust
She's an American highway flower
Walking, blossoming into nowhere
Digesting tailpipes and babies' screams
To fill the hole that used to house her dreams
Why [why] all my ideas
Peel and turn to rust [why]
Why I feel I must
Guess I'll ask the dust
I guess I'll ask the dust
I guess I'll ask the dust
[solo]
[undecipherable whispering]
"I wonder what I'm doing here"
She asks the moon but he don't care
He's busy shinin' on the lucky
In the dark she swims toward nothing
Towards nothing
Why [why] all my ideas
Peel and turn to rust [why]
Why I feel I must
Why [why] all my ideas
Peel and turn to rust [why]
Why I feel I must
Guess I'll ask the dust
I guess I'll ask the dust
