Lyrics

Desolate

You are heading for desolate lands ahead
Soon you'll live in the heart of them
You're breathing in fumes, not sleeping just wandering
through smoke that consumes your days and you're lost in it

Where's the sun?
I let it chase me
It happened and all of the colours, they drowned

I couldn't see

You get caught in the desperate lives you can't save
Will you be a part of them?

Where's the sun?
I let it chase me
It happened and all of the colours, they drowned

I couldn't see

Only you'll be lost here when it's over
Only you'll belong here, ever sombre
