YOU WALK AWAY FROM LIFE 

THROUGH THE DESERT OF THE SOULS 

I FOLLOW FOR AWHILE 

TO HELP YOU FIND YOUR GOAL 

YOU INSIST YOU'LL FIND THE TRUTH 

AND THAT YOU'LL PAY IT WITH YOUR YOUTH 

I TRY TO UNDERSTAND 

AFTER ALL I AM YOUR FRIEND 

AS FAR AS I CAN GO 

ALWAYS - EVERYWHERE 

THERE'S A GREY SPOT OF DESPAIR 

A SOLITARY PAIN 

THAT IS FILLING UP THE AIR 

AS FAR AS I CAN GO 

IS THIS THE END. A FINAL GOODBYE 

IS THIS THE TEARS OF FADING LIFE 

IS THIS THE PLACE 

WHERE YOU ARE GONNA DIE 

YOU HOLD THE BOOK OF TRUTH 

AN AN AGING, SHAKIN' HAND 

BUT THE ONLY THING I SEE 

IS A PALM FULL OF SAND 

AS FAR AS I CAN GO
