Shake me down
I’ll make a noise
Tap my hand
I’ll make you smile
Give me hope
Then take away
Like you did the last time
Like the last time
Like the last time
Tell me who I have to be
Cross my head, lips and heart
Make me get down on my knees
Like you did the last time
Like the last time
Like the last time
Wading through the desert
I am wading through the desert
To the promised land
You burned to the ground
Take me to the highest hill
Show the fireworks display
Tell me it’s for my own good
Like you did the last time
Like the last time
Like the last time
Turn poetry into prose
Then launch a crusade
Make another vale of tears
Like you did the last time
Like the last time
Like the last time
Wading through the desert
I am wading through the desert
To the promised land
You burned to the ground
