"Cold Desert" as written by and Jared/followill Followill....
I'm on the corner, waiting for a light to come on
That's when I know that you're alone
It's cold in the desert, water never sees the ground
Special unspoken without sound
You told me you loved me, that I'd never die alone
Hand over your heart, let's go home
Everyone noticed, everyone has seen the signs
I've always been known to cross lines
I've never ever cried when I was feeling down
I've always been scared of the sound
Jesus don't love me, no one ever carried my load
I'm too young to feel this old
Is it you, is it me
Or does nobody know, nobody see
Nobody but me.
That's when I know that you're alone
It's cold in the desert, water never sees the ground
Special unspoken without sound
You told me you loved me, that I'd never die alone
Hand over your heart, let's go home
Everyone noticed, everyone has seen the signs
I've always been known to cross lines
I've never ever cried when I was feeling down
I've always been scared of the sound
Jesus don't love me, no one ever carried my load
I'm too young to feel this old
Is it you, is it me
Or does nobody know, nobody see
Nobody but me.

"special ones walk on without sound"
I'll edit it when I know the proper lyrics.
I love the song. I don't know if anyone else feels like this but to me it seems like a "whiny" song, like, that's the intention, just to whine, and it sounds frickin awesome. That would tie in with OBTN's theory!
I think its "special love spoken without sound"
Kinda makes sense with the texture of the song - just guessing!
Like much of their lyrics, it comes from their upbringing in a Pentecostal church where special requests for prayer were made, often as "unspoken" when the one making the request didn't want to make the issue public.
