Desperation has a funny worth

Eyes rolling forward at the mind's rebirth

Desperation is a friend at hand

The reach for touch in this arid land.

Oh, but you, you know what you do

Yeah, you, and your dancing shoes

Oh, you, so good at writing tomorrow

You do anything you want to.

Desperation is the things we miss

It's the asteroid, it's a final kiss

Desperation is the disconnect

The warning signs for some self respect.

Oh, but you, you are so beautifully wired

Yeah, you, and your dancing shoes

Oh, you, so good at being desired

You do anything you want to.

Everything we miss

Everything we miss.

Desperation was my sanctuary

The empire state to my sanity

Desperation is a counter strike

Against the giants and the rats alike.

Oh, but you, you go clean of the shadows

Yeah, you, and your dancing shoes

Oh, you, so good at writing tomorrow

Would you, take me with you? you...

Desperation

Desperation

Desperation

Desperation

Desperation

Desperation

Desperation.
