Desert’s all that’s up ahead
But desert’s all you left behind
Truth is you can’t make it grow
But truth is that you have to try

They say you’re crazy way out there
They say in time you’ll drown
They say that there’s no difference
But you see difference all around

CHORUS:
Truth is they can’t see it raging
They don’t know that you need saving
Truth is that it scares you too
You grit your teeth and push on through
You hear them calling “turn around,
Don’t waste your time on barren ground”
This is all they’ve ever known
But you’ve dreamed of more, you have to go
You’ve dreamed of more, you have to know

They say that you’ll just pay the cost
For no reward, that you’re just lost
You feel they’ve left you all alone
When you need them most to help you home

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
You start to question everything
And wonder if they’re right
That you should just go home again
That you’ve already lost this fight
And why should you give up everything
When it’s all left to chance in the end?
And you can’t find the answer but something says
You’ll see green around the bend

CHORUS
