Rivers in the Desert

It's now, or it's never, and I've got to make my decision This time it could be my moment Is this a mirage or a chance to fulfill my mission? A river in a dry land The last ace in a lost hand A heartbeat for a tin man Oasis in a singed land I'm keeping the balance, but I'm standing On razor's edge now Move quick or my life is over One strike, just a feint, then I'm out of his field of vision Don't ask why I'm ready, but I'm ready To strike him down now A chance at a new start There's no time for indecision A river in a dry land The last ace in a lost hand When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet Now we need it A heartbeat for a tin man Oasis in a singed land Remind us what we're here for Creating new life Creating rivers in the desert My heart is a furnace Hot as hell in my world of conflict One goal is what keeps me going Take back what I lost to The bosses of greed and fear, yeah Don't ask why I'm ready, but I'm ready To take them down now The time for a new start Is constantly drawing nearer A river in a dry land The last ace in a lost hand When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet Now we need it A heartbeat for a tin man Oasis in a singed land Remind us what we're here for Creating new life Creating rivers in the desert When a cool drop of water's all I need Got to clear my head of anger and greed A place to refresh Heart and mind Can I find some time in Rivers in a dry land The last ace in a lost hand When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet Now we need it A heartbeat for a tin man Oasis in a singed land Remind us what we're here for Creating new life Creating rivers in the desert
