Desert Catalyst

Verse 1

Crimson mark upon my brow

Still wet inside my mind (My mind)

Torn fabric of a sacred vow

Left the golden days behind

Ten thousand miles of burning sand

Underneath a hollow sun

Pre-Chorus

Hands that once drew stars from air

Clutch at roots and heavy stones

Channeling a broken prayer

Deep within my aching bones

Chorus

Maysoun is a name for ghosts

Just a shadow on the track (On the track)

Searching for the distant coasts

Trying to bring the magic back

Daughter with the laughing eyes

Wife I sent into the grey

Every single bird that flies

Knows I'm losing my way

I am losing my way

Verse 2

Charred feathers in a wooden jar

Help to light the lonely camp (Lonely camp)

Searching for a fallen star

By the flicker of a lamp

Beetles glow with stolen spark

Gliding through the desert night

Pre-Chorus

Hands that once drew stars from air

Clutch at roots and heavy stones

Channeling a broken prayer

Deep within my aching bones

Chorus

Maysoun is a name for ghosts

Just a shadow on the track (On the track)

Searching for the distant coasts

Trying to bring the magic back

Daughter with the laughing eyes

Wife I sent into the grey

Every single bird that flies

Knows I'm losing my way

I am losing my way

Bridge

Three years of light

Four years of dark

Wandering west

Waiting to rest

Washing the stain when the path is found

Until then the red stays on the ground

Chorus

Maysoun is a name for ghosts

Just a shadow on the track (On the track)

Searching for the distant coasts

Trying to bring the magic back

Daughter with the laughing eyes

Wife I sent into the grey

Every single bird that flies

Knows I'm losing my way

I am losing my way

(Losing my way)
