Lyrics
Did there really exist a role for wanderer of his kind
That was a question he wanted to answer, before his time
See Moses wasn't allowed to enter the Promised Land either
But at least the goal was visable beneath his feet
This man had not been taken to the top of that mountain
And wherever he looked there was darkness, an apocalyptic night
And that vast barren desert seemed to stretch on forever
Endless darkness, even darkness at noon
La de da, la de da, even darkness at noon x2
What if the thing you'd strived for, for all your adult life
Turned around and shot you without blinking an eye
But who raised the pistol, what uniform did he wear?
And who's coloured portrain hung over his bed?
This man suddenly realised, there was not any mountain
And wherever he looked there was darkness, an apocalyptic night
That vast barren desert seemed to stretch on forever
Endless darkness, even darkness at noon
La de da, la de da, even darkness at noon x2
