If the weary traveler dies in the desert as they see palm trees on the horizon
What lies then for one who cries, fearing they've been living their life wrong?
If most of the time
dreams aren't realised
to fullest fruitionSpending time striving
just to realise what
one's been missingBefore it's too late to
salvage a memorable
outcomeFinding journey's meaning
proving impossible to someIn a world where second place
means last in the raceWhen the neighbour's greener grass has us saving face
We're martyrs for envy
Drink bottles are empty
Alone in a merciless desert
Only I did have reserves leftAll this time I could have been fine
If only I'd known this world is mine
