There's nothing to trust but the shifting of the sands Burying the monuments of a once great city An empty forum scorched in the sun Where every door is sealed shut These canyon walls have forgotten how to echo Silent and still they wait for a sound For a frail voice to churn out an echo To bounce off the walls, cracked and wasted
Joaquin, Ulysses
The stone buildings begin to crumble As a warm water current floods the void I jerk my head, I kick my legs But I am betrayed, I am betrayed We swallow the cascades, our lungs are crushed Our bodies are swept away, buried in dust I jerk my head, I jerk my head But I am alone, I am alone
