lyrics

Burning in the early morning heat, determined to stay on my feet
It's hard to be a tree in the desert, expediency makes sense if you let it
But reasoning like that could mean your life

I look in vain hope to the merciless, cloudless sky
My leaves are brown and my rootstock is bone dry
But I can hear a sound in the distance, and now I fear that I've got no resistance
It's gonna come and it's gonna run me down

Like a bulldozer
Bulldozer
It's gonna run me down
It's gonna run me down

My fight is all gone and I've got nothing left to give
This is surely not the way we were meant to live
Wearing down our human resources, we've got not time to be scared or be cautious
Who will keep the desert from the door?

They're moving in closer with their ugly ravenous machines,
Laying down roads where the grass used to be so green
Who is gonna stop the erosion, there's just no way to contain this explosion
It's gonna come and it's gonna run me down

Like a bulldozer
Bulldozer
It's gonna run me down
It's gonna run me down

Your words were spinning like a kite caught in a gale
Knives that cut the cloth to take the wind out of my sails
Your words could break a bone, your words float like a stone
Your words could run right over me... like a....

Reeling in the early evening haze, safe from the sun's derisive gaze
Loose tongues are always a killer, imagination's a surrogate filler
Who will fix the damage once it's done?

Stamping down tough on a ground that's dry and hard,
Pushing for a mile when you know I only gave a yard
It's gonna take some time to repair it, until then we'll just have to wear it
Never gonna let it run me down

Like a bulldozer
Bulldozer
Never let it run me down
Never let it run me down

Never let it run me down
Never let it run me down

FytaKyte Brisbane, Australia

As a kid, my imagination ruled as King until "Life Got in the Way"...

Then, during the rain and storms of the day-to-day grind, the seeds of expression gradually germinated into feelings that seemed universal; relatable. I found myself searching for an oblique angle, a different perspective and trying to find the chord that inspired three different feelings at once, with the words to match. ... more
