Desperation Part Ii lyrics

[m/l van Dyk]



Years of writing books

Long behind him now

A nihilistic confidence and a smile upon his face

Johnny Marinville and his Harley through the desert

One last ride to make him feel young again



He came back from Vietnam

Only one to escape the bomb

That tore apart the bar in which he drank with hi friends.

Living with the question

Of why he was the sole survivor

Fighting the dreams that plague him

And wonderingwhen they`ll end



This cynic smiles and feels the wind

As he speeds by the policeman on the road

He stopped and beaten, thrown in the cell

With the others the bleeding cop has found



Collie takes the one

The boy`s mom Ellie

And drags her screaming away



Young David Prays to the God he found

When his friend, run-down, lie dying in his arms

And with his faith, the boys escapes

And frees the desert`s other captives



The stumble across

David`s dead sister

And they bury her with tears in their eyes



Only boy, only a man

Drawn together in God`s plan

In the desert, purposes emerge

All are here to love and serve



All across this desert town

They see the butchered bodies of the dead

What could have caused this hell on earth?

Just what evil made this madness happen?



As even as they hide

Tak returns

Possessing now a different body
