lyrics

I came to see what life was like
On this side of the ocean
But fear and terror had scorched up the land

The heralds were silenced
And all the whistles muffled
Rain was dry / Rain was dry / Rain was dry
A leafless tree stood like a scar
On this side of the ocean
Worms and blue snakes slid their way away
The birds were silent
And all the flowers had withered
Rain was dry / Rain was dry / Rain was dry

I walked ablaze
Across a desert
My life was spared
I do not know why
The truth is
I do not want to die

I came to see what life was like
On this side of the desert
I groped my way out of this dark cell

Geared up to kick from this bottom low
With my heart slit open
I left behind the darkest soul
The battleground of butchered hopes
And filled my eyes/ Filled my eyes/ Filled my eyes
…with a little love

I want my girls
I want my boy
I want my love
To know how grateful
I will ever be
For what I receive – For what I’ve received
I will ever be
For what I receive
