[ WASTELAND ]

waking up for the first time
in years to watch the setting sun
its distant light irradiates a world
i knew once when i was young
like a memory from another lifetime
that escaped and followed me here
familiar yet it seems so empty
like a photograph but much too clear

it looks like a wasteland now
nothing here but hallowed ground
it looks like a wasteland now
whispers spin their way around
it looks like a wasteland now
echoing without a sound
it looks like a wasteland now
lost in time never to be found

walking down these paths i've tread
before i knew where they would lead me
remembering those words i said
when no one would believe me
what's happened to this world i knew?
this vast expanse of desolation
in a land of promise and virtue
i stand in isolation

cutting scars across space and time
filling gaps between body and mind
