I'll Turn It On


The desert wind keeps you warm and dry
Not much water to even wet your lips
And the sand it gets every where
Can't even hide behind goggles or handkerchiefs

Beyond the horizon past the moving sand
Lies a stagnant city a remnant of the days of old
Only the bold and strong of heart will make it there alive
Remember when you arrive there's only one golden rule

Speak from the heart and guard your soul
Evil lurks in the darkness you'll never know
Desperate people lost in their ways live here
Struggling to live their lives day after day you see
You are the stranger in their eyes to this desert land

You can't see past their outstretched hands
The desperation in their voices as if they're trying to say
Help me I’m starving and I can't run away from here
So young am I destined to die or just wither away
Is there more to this earth than this unbearable desert land

The bones are all around you half in the golden sand
How many signs does one need to see this is a wasteland?
Off in the distance you know there is hope for them
How can you tell them it's just outside their reach?
That they will never get to see or bath in a running river
Helpless there's not much you can do as one man
Like the others before you hiding behind the words
This must be what god has planned

I'll turn it on, I’ll turn it on
All my knowledge, my hopes and dreams
This I can share with all of you my new friends
Together we can turn it all around this life of despair
Why in this big world do we leave so many behind?
We should be past all of this in this age of times
I'll turn it on, I’ll turn it on
I'll share with you my love not my hate
I'll hold your hand and guide you true
I'll help whatever I can just show me what to do
My new friends, my new friends
I'll turn it on, I’ll turn it on
I'm here for you with outstretched hands
Showing there can be love for one and all
I’ll try and do the best for you my new friend
I'll turn it on, I’ll turn it on
You know I will try
I'll turn it on, I’ll turn it on
Even if it means I may die
I'll turn it on, I’ll turn it on
I'll turn it on, I’ll turn it on
