The wind tried to tell us

We failed to understand

We lost our senses of direction

Drowned in the desert sand



We left home without notice

No landmark to be seen

The ground died beneath us

The landscape was unclean



As we search for oblivion

We forget to remember

The faint memory of home

Far beyond the wasteland



We drank the poisoned water

To hear the serpent speak

He told us of a garden

With the treasure that we seek



As we try to discover

The secret deep inside

There is nothing to be found

Only dust in the wasteland



As we search for oblivion

We forget to remember

The faint memory of home

Far beyond the wasteland
