A long abandoned sepulcher that rests on sun-bleached stone
Baked for long millennia in its lost wasteland home
Destinations all unknown for transportation's wreck
Defeated bones of armies left for all purpose unchecked
Scouring the endless dunes of times so long forgot
Neglected lands of wispy grains arranging where they fought
Cobblestone of red and white where waters swept away
Decimated ruins of a civilization lost to age
Like monoliths
Remains of gods
If it exists
It's where devils trod
I'm from the desert
The land where ancient mysteries go unsolved
We follow the word of the one
I'm from the desert
Sands of time fall through the hourglass for all
In the land of eternal sun
You see it on the horizon, those bones he left behind
Erosion from the passage of the centuries outlined
Now a home to thousands stranded far from any hope
Battling over water in the arenas, fires stoked
Legendary warriors clashing inside the ring
Swords and axes shattering before the champion king
Across this vast expanse of death these cities will emerge
Cast into the fable by the Great Beings' reckless purge
True warriors
Of flesh and bone
The war endures
For reasons unknown
I'm from the desert
The land where ancient mysteries go unsolved
We follow the word of the one
I'm from the desert
Sands of time fall through the hourglass for all
In the land of eternal sun
The prophecy will be fulfilled one day
A hero will return from the grave
Careening down from outer space
Determined to show us the way
But until we know his name
I'm from the desert
The land where ancient mysteries go unsolved
We follow the word of the one
I'm from the desert
Sands of time fall through the hourglass for all
In the land of eternal sun
