Sitting here with your fingers in your pocket
Breathless, lifeless, like the cold stone
Then you lift your head up to the heavens
Wondering where your trouble's coming from
Well, I found you in the desert. I found you in the rain
Searching for a cup of water or some miracle you can't explain
Nobody's going to lay a hand on you now
Just step back and escape it somehow
Nobody's going to lay a hand on you now
It might just pave a better way even though you're lying down here dormant all day
Sitting here just waiting on the harvest
Although you've never had your knees down in the soil
Then you curse the ground beneath your feet
Swearing justice to the helpless in the poor
Well, I found you in the desert. I found you in the rain
Searching for a cup of water or some miracle you can't explain
Nobody's going to lay a hand on you now
Just step back and escape it somehow
Nobody's going to lay a hand on you now
It might just pave a better way even though you're lying down here dormant all day
Just wait by the fire light
You'd feel wonderful tonight if you take it slow
Nobody's going to lay a hand on you now
Just step back and escape it somehow
Nobody's going to lay a hand on you now
It might just pave a better way even though you're lying down here dormant all day
