LYRICS

Here I stand, in no man’s land, drear and stark and dead
Contrariwise, these merry eyes, see blue skies overhead
All is Bleak, so very bleak
In this land of grim mystique

Empty spaces, harsh places, send a wistful plea
Like someone near, someone dear, calling out to me
And the wind wails its desire
And it’s hungry, hungry like a fire, like a wildfire

CHORUS:
I’m full of fight, here I stand
I’m doing alright in No Man’s Land

With Blinders gone, I look upon, this mystic land of strife
This open door, to the ground floor, of rough and restless life
I looked up at the sky once more
Had it ever been so blue before –

Birds fly, shadows rush by, there’s movement behind each stone
I’m lonely in name only, for I’ve never been alone
All the earth is fierce and alive
And it’s hungry, hungry to thrive, to survive

CHORUS

Endless rocks, endless knocks, endless shifting sand
The sun’s ablaze, no shady ways, but still, I understand
I understand this No Man’s Land

CHORUS
