The Frame III: Sirocco

When it’s so damn hot
They say we only see just what we want, what we want
Well, trust them not
There’s no one here to argue this mirage when hope is all you got
'Cause now they’re closing in as you begin to fall apart
When everybody grew so cold
You gave up, but we believed in you, believed in you
And you were once this empty shell
Now you stand above the rest
Yeah, I took you in, told you of the storm that’s coming
And I watched your eyes light up like fireflies in the desert night
And you said: «Yes, my friend, they’re hunting me down like a dog»
So I’ll have them die like one."
Now they’re closing in, as you begin your plan and run
Run, run, run
When everybody grew so cold
You gave up, but we believed in you, believed in you
And you were once this empty shell
Now you stand above the rest, yeah
You led them from where you call home
And into a desert storm
And left them to deal with God
(I wash my hands and now it’s done)
In the morning, they’d all be gone, yeah
When everybody grew so cold
You gave up but we believed in you, believed in you
And you were once this empty shell
Now you stand above the rest
Oh, you stand above the rest
Oh, you stand above the rest, yeah
But they already took her from us, from us
