From the Eyes of the Stranded
Lost, Stranded in a sandy place
 Despate Eyes think desperate things
 To run away from heat is safe
 As the calm, beautiful Siren sings
 
 And as the blue urn is filled it gains
 The Everlasting Fire of the red-eyes gaze
 Our desponding feet take desperate ways
 To save ourselves from desert heat waves
 
 Oh, someone save us from this horrid place
 We are stranded here without grace
 of an everlasting water, there is a dearth,
 As the sirens now sing a dirge.
 
 No, waves are not a friendly sort
 To those shipped off and leaving port
 but a two-legged camel once did say
 the waves will take my thirst away
 
 To those who left the port today
 I tip my hat and say Goodday
 For a time will come when you've finished your flight
 And you'll say land ho! Safety in sight.
 
 But as we walk this terrible place 
 Our hearts are burnt from red to black
 We try to reach out, but we are buffered by clouds
 We are blocked from divine, her the sun always shines
 
 To those that walk a dried up land I'd love to take your sandy hand
 and maybe take you to a safer place
 on the hands of the blue waves.
