My destination is unknown

And i've lost my way

But I still have water

With my rations running low

I am so fatigued

Can I go much further?

Lost and all alone

In the blazing heat

And it just gets hotter

Sweat drips down my skin

And string my eyes

As I look toward the distance

Blistered hands block the sun

That blinds my sight

And dances on the horizon

Is there something up ahead?

Or just a mirage

Fooling me again

Another dried up waterhole

Lacking nourishment

Quench my thirst and feed my mind

The place that I seek is so far away

And I don't know which way to go

The vision I see is a holy place

That is tranquil to the soul

Just a nomad sailling across this earthly sea

Searching on and on for sanctuary

Weary from the chase of life's eluding dream

Strive to reach that goal but it's never ending

Raise my canteen to parched lips

Taste the water so sweet

Take one last swallow

So many miles I have come

So many more to go

Down the path I follow

Funny how we lose our way

Through this desolate land

Lives are grains of sand

Which way will the wind blow?

Sifting through our hands

To fall wherever they may

The place that I seek is so far away

And I don't know which way to go

The vision I see is a holy place

That is tranquil to the soul
