Across the Wastelands

Sick and wounded – and close to death

Step by step through the desert sand

Burning our lunges with hot breath

A nameless torture without end

Hope and desire

Merged on a trail of fire

Agony and pain

Praying for a desert rain

The crack of the whip

The beat of the drum

The horror seems to last forever

Crossing the land

We’re crossing the sea

Chained and bound together

Across the wastelands

Beyond the seas

Onward to an unknown fate we ride

Across the wastelands

The barren earth

Facing our fate side by side

Side by side

Passing galleys on a lake of sulphur

Bloodred sunset – yellow water

Increasing clouds of poisoned vapour

Hear the echoes of the tyrants laughter

Rain and our tears

Mixed on a sea of fears

Screams and cries

Stars of an endless night
