Asphalt and Concrete

I can stay alive when it gets a little hotter
 I can survive on just a little water
 I can be all alone and not feel the slightest bit bothered
 But this dusty desert girl drifted to the city
 The bright lights made even the worst sin look pretty
 I spiraled downward, my mama would say what a pity
 Well in my defense it was an Austin moonrise
 And I was left unsupervised
 I lost myself in the middle of sixth street
 Boots turned to high heels which turned into bare feet
 Whiskey made me opinionated
 Overserved and overstimulated
 Neon lights put off a different kind of heat
 You can't plant a cactus in asphalt and concrete
 I'm into sunsets and I love the sand
 I wasn't myself in a disrupted land
 With buildings and people and too many drinks in my hand
 So midnight would give me life like the rain
 There was nothing to celebrate but I had champagne
 And a man who loved me a little bit less than cocaine
 Well in my defense it was an Austin moonrise
 And I was left unsupervised
 I lost myself in the middle of sixth street
 Boots turned to high heels which turned into bare feet
 Whiskey made me opinionated
 Overserved and overstimulated
 Neon lights put off a different kind of heat
 You can't plant a cactus in asphalt and concrete
 I lost myself in the middle of sixth street
 Boots turned to high heels which turned into bare feet
 Neon lights put off a different kind of heat
 You can't plant a cactus in asphalt and concrete
