Mirage

(album: Bulletproof - 2008)

Lonesome and hungry I travel this land
Searching for some place called home
Faceless and nameless known only by fate
When destiny finds me no more shall I roam

Tired and thirsty as I travel on
Dreaming of water and wine
Beside a green meadow I stop for a rest
Where a gentle brook winds through the pines

Standing eyes blinded by God's golden water
My savior was but a facade
Hands sifting sand from a pool full of promise
My oasis was just a mirage

Alone and exhausted I fall to my knees
I can't find the strength to go on
Visions will show me the path as I sleep
And I'll find my way with the dawn

Standing eyes blinded by God's golden water
My savior was but a facade
Hands sifting sand from a pool full of promise
My oasis was just a mirage

Awakened by voices that whisper my name
I'm all alone in the night
How can a place so empty and cold
Be filled with such glorious light

Standing eyes blinded by God's golden water
My savior was but a facade
Hands sifting sand from a pool full of promise
My oasis was just a mirage

[repeat chorus]

Lonesome and hungry I travel this land
Searching for some place called home
Faceless and nameless known only by fate
When destiny finds me no more shall I roam
