Long Desert Road

Mother sets the table
Father breaks the glass
Brother still unable
To let his anger pass

Long desert road
Everybody wants you now
Long desert road
Abraham he haunts you now
Long desert road
What did you do
To make there be such trouble over you?

It all comes down to brothers
Who's the favorite son?
A patriarch has two to love
But usually he chooses one

Vanity and frailty
Insanity to blame
How many have to bleed
To see that everyone's the same?
Long desert road
What did you do
To make there be such trouble over you?
To make there be such trouble over you?
To make there be such trouble over you?

The churches of the cities
The temples of the sand
An ancient black vendetta
Over who will tend the land
A prophet to the people
Giving peace a chance
Murdered there upon the stair
To see there's no advance

Long desert road
Everybody wants you now
Abraham he haunts you now
