[Verse 1]
Born where the dirt whispers secrets to the wind,
Sand in my shoes, dreams buried within.
Hunger ain't just food, it's a gnaw in the chest,
Each sunset a battle, no time for rest.
Sky bleeds orange, horizon stays cold,
Youth feels ancient, growing up old.
[Pre-Chorus]
Echoes of a world that don’t know my name,
Chasing shadows in a losing game.
[Chorus]
Wasteland blues, we rise, we fall,
Built castles from dust, then we lost it all.
Wasteland blues, these scars, they sing,
Crows on the wire, no crown, no king.
[Verse 2]
Rust in the veins, streets paved with decay,
Dreams ride on scavenged wings that fray.
Dug for gold in the trash of the past,
Every bright hope here shatters fast.
A laugh's a luxury, tears come free,
Freedom feels like a locked-up key.
[Chorus]
Wasteland blues, we rise, we fall,
Built castles from dust, then we lost it all.
Wasteland blues, these scars, they sing,
Crows on the wire, no crown, no king.
[Bridge]
Cracked mirrors, can't see who I am,
The wasteland don't care 'bout a broken man.
The ground drinks the rain, but the thirst stays deep,
I plant my hopes, but nothing will reap.
