Salt Flats Skeletons | Dark Country & Blues Music - Dark Country Boy
Dusty winds call the pale white bones
Under a sky where the sun never moans
Echoes dance where the whispers won't fade
Salt flats glisten in a barren parade
Salt flat skeletons buried in the glow
Shadows stretch long where no rivers flow
Every grain of silence a story untold
Salt flat skeletons with secrets so cold
Footprints vanish like ghosts in the haze
Tremors of the earth from forgotten days
Cacti stand like sentinels in the night
Guarding the sands from the pale moonlight
Salt flat skeletons buried in the glow
Shadows stretch long where no rivers flow
Every grain of silence a story untold
Salt flat skeletons with secrets so cold
The tremolo hum of the guitar cries low
And an eerie whistle drifts where the winds go
A baritone croon pulls the night in tight
A song for the restless under starlight
Bones like puzzles scattered in the ground
Maps to a past that can never be found
Slapback snare echoes through the dark
Leaving the ghosts with a haunting spark
