A warning shot
Is fired above and to the left of me
The sound echo
Drums through my head, beats like a heart
Oh
We're like a foreign legion
In unfamiliar land
We're wide awake and crawling like a centipede
The whip and crack of the wind
Takes us
To high country
Loose shale
Step stones
Form a pathway through the desert
Frozen
Water
And thin air drags the life away
Oh
We're like a foreign legion
Led by high beams
We're wide awake and crawling like a centipede yet
The whip and crack of the wind
Takes us to high country
Scared and dazed
Out of breath
Out of pace
We congregate
Where what's black
And what's white
Turns to day
Stars will fade
Into dawn
And on the roof
The old day
Is reborn
Is reborn
Is reborn
Is reborn
Is reborn
Is reborn
Is reborn
Is reborn
Is reborn
(Is reborn)
(Is reborn)
(Is reborn)
