Well, into the desert we must go 

So into the desert we go 

Call it a ritual 

Call it whatever you will 



And you will grow out of me 

As naturally as branches from a tree 

Call it a ritual 

Call it whatever you will 

But you know they will swing 

Swing their swords for show 

While you turn your flower pedals so slow 



You said the desert will eat us alive 

I said I make the decisions 

You just drive 

You just drive 



And I saw the windmill raise from the ground 

And I heard the wind come creeping around 

Call it an act of easy mercy 

To tear the structure down 

Call it whatever you will 



Call it whatever you will 

'Cause you know they will swing 

Swing their swords for show 

While you turn your flower pedals so slow 



But I am amazed at how they go 

I am amazed at how they go 

I am amazed at how they go 



So call it whatever you will 



Call it a ritual 

Call it whatever you will 

'Cause you know they will swing 

Swing their swords for show
