Searching eyes in the hollow of a frozen heart Tearing dry sand apart for a single spark Digging deep in the ruins of a broken soul Losing breath as the shadows take their final toll Mirage of mercy in a sea of stone You seek the light but you are all alone Vultures circle the promise of a hollow grace Truth is hidden beneath a cold and cruel face Kindness buried in dunes of eternal greed Planting hope where there is no soil for the seed The darkness swallows every drop of your gold The heart is empty and the fire is cold Desert sands Digging for a diamond in a wasteland made of glass Watching every shadow of your golden future pass Desert sands The Sun will burn the memory of the person you have been Till there's nothing left but emptiness and cruelty within Buried in the dust of despair Desert sands Digging for a diamond in a wasteland made of glass Watching every shadow of your golden future pass Desert sands The Sun will burn the memory of the person you have been Till there's nothing left but emptiness and cruelty within Buried in the dust of despair
