There is a desert past the fields
Over the mountains away
For past the mountains not very many
Rain clouds tend to stray

The sky never darkens except at night
But the day is always bright
Always ready to show you flames
As the sun shines down light

Here no water ever comes
Not even tears to cry
Here you can sit
Where it will always be dry

Is that good or is that bad
It's very bad I'll tell
For years and years
The only presence is a face that fell

This fallen face is part of you
For its in you and lives
It brings your thoughts to despair
And nothing it continually gives

The sun or the moon is always shining
The desert is never dark
Never absent never alone
Never heard the meadow lark

A meadow lark would be a sign
That there was reason and good
But in this desert, none are present
You have to escape if you could

But your prisoner in this desert
A never ending land
No water, no joy, no darkness to rest
Your only surrounded by burning sand

So here your fallen face will tell
You of a forlorn man
A man who is lost in his mind
Escape him if you can

But you can't, for it's not possible
The sand will never leave
And neither will the fallen face
Your stuck to only grieve

Your world is lost, you'll never rest
You will always be alone
Hopelessness is all you will know
This the light has shone

All you need is one little drop
A drop to quench your thirst
A drop to make plants grow
But it seems you are cursed

Cursed to live your life here
In this desert of empty fear
With out rain, sleep, or tear
But with storms you'll never hear

This desert is your mind
It's all you'll ever know
A state of hopelessness
Is what you'll continually show

The lights above you guide your way
Forcing your wandering soul
You're trying to find a way out
Freedom is your unattainable goal

Your world is lost, you'll never rest
You will always be alone
Hopelessness is all you will know
This the light has shone
