This planet is a single sea
And we have crashed into its solitary island
The shores roll like boiling sand against the waves
Rain comes down in constant sheets
And the only source of hope or relief is an oasis that mimics the sun
I must find shelter
For I am in danger
A few more hours of this
And I will drown where I stand
Drops of lead drill holes through my skull
Hack away at my flesh, bleach the color from my skin
They worm cold trails through my hair
Down my neck and spine
Just praying for my body to go numb
While some desert prisoners would challenge the sun and pray for rain
I can't even lift my face to curse the bursting sky
Millions of pelting precious j**els are slowly driving me insane
And I would k** a man just to feel the flames of Hell lick me dry
Infinite streams tunnel into the soil
From steaming angry clouds
Melting away
Stinging
Crawling
Dancing
Slashing
Choking
We found him frantic
Slapping at the heavy raindrops sweating down his body
Just repeating over and over
Don't know enough to come in outta the rain
I thought I saw the sun dome
Radiating not far ahead
My eyes transfixed
I raced for it
Slipped and fell
And discovered my mind's trick
Lie here
It's only a mirage
Lie here
It's no use
Drink all you want
Somewhere in this single sea
Maybe they have an Atlantis of their own
Where they take you when they find you
Use an entire day to drown and torture
Unwanted visitors like me
I'm forced to hold my breath until I find this place
Buried underwater
Beware the chase
I sought the storm and now I can't escape
Heaven doesn't look so holy when it's heaving
