[Verse 1] Boot on the red sand Sky bending sideways Sun looks the wrong way Air tastes like metal rain Cactus grows backwards Shadows walk ahead of me Maps all melt at the edges Compass keeps laughing, quietly [Chorus] This ain't the road I thought I knew Horizon folds, then splits in two I ride the echo, chase the strange Every mile, the world deranged This ain't the road I thought I knew But somehow it keeps leading back to you [Verse 2] Vultures hum low tunes Dust storms bloom like flowers Moon hangs at high noon Clocks fall apart in the towers Mirage in a leather coat Says, "Kid, you can turn around" But the ground starts breathing slow And my horse walks upside down (hey!) [Chorus] This ain't the road I thought I knew Horizon folds, then splits in two I ride the echo, chase the strange Every mile, the world deranged This ain't the road I thought I knew But somehow it keeps leading back to you [Bridge] Cards in the saddlebag, all the same suit Stars grow roots, pull up the sky Gun in my holster, firing blue fruit I laugh, I choke, I ask why [Chorus] This ain't the road I thought I knew Horizon folds, then splits in two I ride the echo, chase the strange Every mile, the world deranged This ain't the road I thought I knew But somehow it keeps leading back to you (to you) Back to you (back to you)
