lyrics

I. Awakening

I woke up in this place
So dry and so hot
I just cannot understand
Why am I here?

The sunlight is strong
While I am alone
I got to choose a direction
To come Back Home

There is no sign of life
In this ocean of sand
I ain't got nothing with me
But I just want to survive

I have to stand up and run
If I don't want to die here
I am challenged by the sun
And my will to survive

I am stuck in the Desert of Death

I have one thing in head
It's an optimist thought
If I choose any way
I should find something for me

I am dreaming of an Oasis
Or a Path to the City
But wait a minute what do I see?
It's a giant caravan

I am stuck in the Desert of Death

II. Caravan

I am now riding a camel
The heart filled with hope
In this troubled world we travel
And I'm the last in line
But it seems to me
That we are
Going to town

And I just can't wait
To rejoin the city, yeah
I don't want to be
Left again
On my own
I don't want to be
Left again
ON MY OWN

I am asking myself
Who's leading the caravan?
But when I ask for him
Nobody answers
And when I ask again
Nobody knows
Nobody cares

I am asking myself
Where is going the caravan? Yeah
But when I ask for it
Nobody answers
And when I ask again
Nobody cares
NOBODY KNOWS

III. Wandering

I asked to another man
How did you decide to be here
He said it wasn't a choice
He'd need it to come Back Home

The man arrived in the Desert just like me
He did wake up here and started walking
Until he saw the caravan
Until he thought he was saved

Then I understood what was happening
I felt I would never be Back Home
I was here in another world
I was wandering in the Desert of Death

I am stuck in the Desert of Death
A situation that makes me lose my breath
