Wasteland
Go Periscope Lyrics

Got a vision of us, that you don't want it all
I have a dream of our future together, but you don't share that same desire.

Won't let it hold on
I won't cling to this vision if it's not meant to be.

Raise it up to the light only to watch it fall
I hold our relationship up to scrutiny, only to realize it's unstable and doomed to fail.

With no where to run
I feel trapped, there's no escape from this situation.

My life is gone
Everything that gave me purpose and meaning is destroyed or dead.

My friends are dead
All the people who supported and uplifted me are gone, leaving me lonely and desolate.

I hold my torch above my head
In the darkness, I try to find my way and make sense of my situation.

All I can find, all I see
The only thing I can perceive is devastation and destruction.

Buried in sand beneath my feet
All the things I valued or had faith in have been buried, and I can't access them anymore.

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
I am completely exposed and vulnerable, with no protection or shelter.

Nowhere to go
There is no destination, goal or purpose left for me to pursue.

I tell myself it's not so bad
I try to stay optimistic and optimistic, even if my situation is dire.

'Cause in the end
Because ultimately, when everything else fails,

You're all I've ever had
You are the only thing that matters to me now, the only connection I have left in this world.

All my gold and all my horses
Everything I had, all the possessions and riches that defined me,

You taking away
Have been taken away from me by you, leaving me with nothing.

Leave me out in the dark without even a call
You've abandoned me in my time of need, leaving me alone and helpless.

Evil lurking about for all I know I'm all done
There's a sense of danger and malevolence surrounding me, and I fear it will overpower me soon.

It's a wasteland
My life and my surroundings are barren, empty and hopeless.

Buried away
Everything I cherished or pursued is now hidden or lost, with no way to retrieve it.
