The Devil of the Desert Lyrics


Far too long and far to reach

In the desert of disbelief

The sand of time still hurls bewildered restlessness

And curls fornicated parapets from where an army of spears will rise

Formation stand! Foot in sand to seize the contraband

Our spears are held up high we are willing to die

Come storm, reluctant I abide by

I bid you welcome, I’ll tame the tides and ride

I’ll tame the tides and ride

So came the storm now silent and calm

And what is left is nothing but death

Narrowing space of trapping walls

Underneath a welkin arc that slowly dissolves

For far too long and for far to reach

In the bleak desert of betrayal and disbelief

A hopeless fool built in the sand his tomb

Of nothing, but time – grew old and forgetful in his mind

So came the storm now silent and calm

And what is left is nothing but death

Narrowing space of trapping walls

Underneath a welkin arc that slowly dissolves
