Turn the lights off, lean back and look up into the sky above
You better come fast before the sleeper overcomes you at last
And the galaxy doesn't shine as bright on the northern hemisphere
But the moon shines as clear
Turn around and look down to the river bending into no man's land
Wave back to that little girl playing in the sand on the side of the track
Follow the road down to the coast where I heard them say that God was born
Long ago
Climb up into the clouds and feel the cold crawling under your skin
When you're out there on your own and the rain tears into the snow
You knew it wouldn't be easy and now you know just how hard not easy can get
How cold and how wet
I want to lay in the red sand
I want to touch it with my own hands
I want to know how much of nothing I can stand
I want to scream in the desert
I want to go where the rainbow bends
I want to see the suburbs disappear
I want to know how the sun goes down
I want to know how the story ends
Living is easy if your luggage is light and nothing weighs you down
Loving is easy if your pockets are empty and you're drenched to the bones
In the middle of nowhere
I want to know how the story ends
Where nobody knows where you are
You don't have to drive that far
I want to lay in the red sand
I want to touch it with my own hands
I want to know how much of nothing I can stand
I want to scream in the desert
I want to go where the rain tears into the snow
I want to go where the rainbow bends
I want to see the suburbs disappear
I want to know how the story ends
I want to lay in the red sand
I want to touch it with my own hands
I want to know how much of nothing I can stand
I want to scream in the desert
I want to go where the rainbow bends
I want to see the suburbs disappear
I want to know how the story ends
I want to know how the story ends
I want to know how the story ends
