War to go
One scream away
From murder
Art done right
Never to fight
Conscience of convenience
Sand blind cold boots pant rash hair clay mud pies
Resident sadists social decay
Where there are no truths and no lies
Foot soldiers claim
Their genocide bouquet
When one of the greatest stays
Gives people time to escape
You already can guess his fate

Welcome to the desert
No oasis in sight
Self created madness
Sun-baked, just right
Walk with me through sand
Glass shards cut your toes
Miles of emptiness, where are you
Buried hearts, but where? Who knows
Up another sandy hill
Here is where she fell
Into that bottomless labyrinth that is
Your heart; their wishing well
Over another sea of sand
A sucking whirlpool of souls
Mixed with promises of love and life
And hoped for, promised goals
Across a range of gritty dunes
Tombstones line the way
Buried hearts of sand-blind pawns
Emotions ripped away
Ghostly voices speak from the sand
Little you’ve done is good
All around there’s nothing but sand
I’d get away if I could
Swirling sands spurred by winds
As lies leave me twisting in the wind
Footprints of others long since buried
With the words I’ve had to rescind
The mirage of safe haven just within reach
A tease so deserving and droll
Empty expanse I invite others to leave
Virgin sand for miles around, oasis of my soul
