South of Nowhere

We left with just our shirts on our backs
And we knew we'd never make it back
This is not just anywhere
This is the south of nowhere

I saw some pictures in the ancient hall
Faded frescoes on a darkened wall
Of Peter who denied
And Jesus crucified
At the top of Calvary hill
And Mary so sad and still

There's a bad moon and thunder in the air
This is the south, the south of nowhere
And an old man said it's sad but true
The downfall of the many is caused by just a few
Now the river floods the valley floor
And we can make it home no more
The river floods the valley floor
And we can make it home no more
