Take Me to the Water

(Music by: Peter Wagner (Peavy); Lyrics by: Peter Wagner (Peavy)) My blinded eyes are staring at the burning sky There's not a cloud to throw a shadow in my way My dried out body's got no shelter from the sun What's coming over me, to hell, what's coming over me? I'm stumbling through these fields of naked stones and sand Here's nothing growing, every life has found and end And not a drop of water that could wet my lips What's coming over me, to hell, what's coming over me? I'm burning for liquid More than words can say I can't stay in this wasteland I'm starving, I need your hand Take me to the water, bring me to a shore Take me to the water, I can't take much more I can't explain it what has happened to my land What once were meadows now is deadly desert sand And all my people died, our fountains, they ran dry What did come over us, to hell, what did come over us? We were a race of billions, trying to rule the earth But on this planet we have done our job the worst It seems that our evolution made no sense What did come over us, to hell, what did come over us? Disasters, they warned us We did not see the signs I can't stay in this wasteland I'm starving, I need your hand Take me to the water, bring me to a shore Take me to the water, I can't take much more We were send to a holy land, were meant to understand Pride got us completely wrong to believe we're endless strong Take on life and I'll take two, sort 'em out and kill anew Hell is here, it's sad but true When one thinks he's more than you The blinded eyes are staring at the burning sky The last man on this planet, left alone to die The only hope is left to find what he was told To find the river where the water of mercy flows Take me to the water...
