lyrics

The desert is quiet, the heat moves on the sand in a choreographed dance and with a grace I wish I had - to make you see what I believe to be true and real.

The sand goes on forever, I'm alone under this sun. The moon brings me comfort when I lay down to rest. And the wind washes over me, please, make me clean and bring me out of this.

I wear sweat around my neck like fine jewels to be desired and I know that you may want them but they're too heavy to remove. They're like my crown when I wear them and I need them to be found.

I saw a well in the sand and fell in while raising the bucket. Now I'm treading too far from the surface and can't stop drinking the water.
