Lyrics:
I hate to say, but we've looked on better daysIt took me by surpriseWe left our quiet home behindThe castaways drag the lakeThe desperation burnsRaise the alarmUn-close your eyesDesperationYou never sang so sweetly 'til you whispered in my earI never heard a sound but I could hearThe hatchet-man dusting off his sleeveSpil't my blood and drank my dreamsAnd stopped the spinning wheelsWash away the bitter tasteThe desperation burnsRaise the alarmUn-close your eyesDesperationThe last one flewJust out of sightIf it throws you awayJust sit back and enjoy the rideRaise the alarmUn-close your eyesDesperation burns
