So we wait beside the desert 

Nothing left to give away 

Naked as the Hanged Man's secrets 

Nothing left to do but pray



You don't have to play the horses 

Life's a gamble all the same 

It don't take much to make you lose sight 

Of the object of the game 



Anyone can be a soldier 

It's a prevalent disease 

Oh God I don't know where to step now 

Help me find the right road please 



So we wait beside the desert

Nothing left to give away

Naked as the Hanged Man's secrets 

Praying for the break of day
