There’s a man
Who lives in a strange land
He feeds the plants
That are growing up on sand
He feeds them all
Every morning’s dawn
Just to keep the desert
Away from his heart
There’s this guy
Living inside and sly
I thought he was my friend
My brother
But I was wrong
I was so wrong
I could see clear
And hold back my tears
He locked me in this jail
In his desert
To live loosely
My heart is dry
And I try to find
Some food for the soul
There’ s this boy
Swimming in his own void
He fights against
His loneliness
He’s full of dread
Every night laying down on his bed
He keeps digging until
The desert surrounds him
He puts himself in jail
In his own desert
And feels so hurt
His heart is dry
And just can’t find
My love for food
