The Desert Heat

The coast stands still in the desert heat And the cloud parts from above and filters a message Of love, I felt comfortable for a moment And observe the scene from a distance But the moment quickly changed when The earth began to shake and birds Starts pouring through the gate I watched hundreds of ships sailing in With the mad wind propelling them along the border And the pirates hanging on the sides with vicious eyes And long guns strapped on their backs and sides I didn’t like the look on their face, they were going To invade the place, big ships keep rolling in And drunken men parading along the ships corridor Holding guns and whisky bottles in their hands Taking a sip and singing a loud and boisterous song And the ship keeps unloading from morning Till sun down with boxes and suitcase, barrel and food And bags packed with jewel and shoe They form long lines on the other side And the ship stood still in the desert heat
