Lost in the wasteland, losing hope We carry on On a mission that we don't understand We were sent to recover the past Our quarry's fleeting Ghosts of failure blind our hands and minds Submissively marching in line Thirsty for honor, starved for ideals Lusting for distant glories Desperate rulers put their servants to flight But we do as we're told and we bow Their guilt's in our hands So the quest goes on, no treasures in sight We grope onward in a darker night Will we make our way back home Will our courage be exalted Or damned in dismay Cover your eyes and pray Glory and pride Won't show the way Who is our light And our guide Losing every day Years have passed and many are lost Forgotten, unmourned As they fail so too shall we fail them in turn Our memory's lost in the wind The raging storm Buries bodies, deeds, and all that we learned This is the prize that we've earned Will we make our way back home Will our courage be exalted Or damned in dismay Cover your eyes and pray In the night Look to the sky Watch for the lights Wait for the sign We'll never see We hope in our hearts that we can find some way To bear the decay Cover your eyes and pray Cover your eyes and pray Cover your eyes and pray
