In the Desert

In those nights of despair
You wept secret tears
We prayed repugnant prayers
Your dark eyes were near
Try the smile of hope

Don't weep, don't weep, try it
Don't weep, don't weep, try it
Don't weep, don't weep, try it
Don't weep, don't weep, try it

A simple lie?
Facade or truth?
What you see
Has roots too deep
As we spied
Inquiring
You were trembling with fear
That we're caught in dreams
The simplest lie
That we find truth
We are wandering the desert

It's that shine beyond reach
That we're longing for
You said "Nothing's at ease"
I won't try to calm you with words of fools no more

Don't weep, don't weep, try it
Don't weep, don't weep, try it
Don't weep, don't weep, try it
Don't weep, don't weep, try it

A simple lie
A mirage, it seemed
We head into
That dangerous beam
A trick of the light
Awaken to see
It's a desert that we walk
Where we seek for glee
Traps of light
Swirling air
We were thrown into the plain
Of hope and despair

We were wanderers and friends in an unknown plain
We were passengers, inquirers of a nameless waste
We were wandering about with an unknown aim
We were trembling with this doubt: "are our lives but waste?"
