Lyrics
Dustland fairytale beginning
Just another white trash
County kiss
Sixty one
Long brown hair and foolish eyes
He looks just like you want him to
Some kind of slick chrome American prince
A blue jean serenade
And Moon River what'd you do to me
And I don't believe you

Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil warping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the minute that I turn away
I got my money on a pawn tonight

Change came in disguised of revelation
Set his soul on fire
She said she'd always knew he'd come around
And the decades disappear like sinking
Ships we persevere god gives us hope
But we still fear
We don't know
The mind is poison castle in the sky
Sit stranded vandalized
The draw bridge is closing

Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil warping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the ending were they turned the page
I threw my money and I ran away
Strait to the valley of the great divide

And were the dreams roll high
And were the wind don't blow
Out here the good girls die
And the sky won't snow
Out here the bird don't sing
Out here the field don't grow
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the good girls die

Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
Its such a bitter form of refuge
Ah don't you know the kingdoms under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in sixty-one
In the of the cadence in the young mans eyes
And were the dreams roll high

The Killers – A Dustland Fairytale
“A Dustland Fairytale” is a song from The Killers' 4th studio album, Day & Age, released in 2008. It was written about the story of how lead singer Brandon Flowers' parents met
The Killers (Ft. Bruce Springsteen) – Dustland

The Killers – Your Side Of Town
[Verse] / If I could put my arms around you / Would you remember how it feels / To bask in the glow of my protection? / Stumble and fall head over heels / If I could only find the
The Killers – ​boy
[Intro] / Just give yourself some time / [Verse 1] / Head down / Wrong fit / Big deal / That's just growin' up / Untouched, sixteen / Don't overthink it, boy / White arrows will
The Killers (Ft. ​k.d. lang) – Lightning Fields
[Verse 1: Brandon Flowers] / Last night I saw you dressed in white / Nothing around you / You were standing in the lightning field of love / You were waiting for the lightning to
The Killers – Goodnight, Travel Well
This song is about losing a loved one, and saying goodbye to that soul. It forces us to realize the futility of all the fights with those we fundamentally hold dear to our hearts
The Killers – Losing Touch
[Verse 1] / Console me in my darkest hour / Convince me that the truth is always gray / Caress me in your velvet chair / Conceal me from the ghost you cast away / [Chorus 1] / I

[Verse 1] / The emotion it was electric / And the stars, they all aligned / I knew I had to make my decision / But I never made the time / No, I never made the time / [Chorus] / In
The Killers – The World We Live In
[Chorus 1] / This is the world that we live in / I feel myself get tired / This is the world that we live in / [Verse 1] / Well maybe I was mistaken / I heard a rumor that you quit
The Killers – Joy Ride
[Verse 1] / It's getting close to sundown / Over the Sierra / Stranded on the heat wave / Burning with desire / She was on the sidewalk / Looking for a nightlife / Talked about the
The Killers – Spirit
[Verse 1] / Wiped out, sucking on the fumes of a long-gone flame / Can you leverage love? Can you process pain? / It grabs you by the night / My dreams are big and bathing in light
The Killers – Spaceman
Brandon Flowers’s commentary on rising fame and how it’s similar to being abducted, probed, and dissected by aliens.
The Killers – Tidal Wave
[Verse 1] / He’s always trouble with his non-complacence / Shotgun eyes, shotgun eyes / His subtlety, his mystery / Not like the other guys / She’s always taken by his reputation
