"Tombstone" lyrics
"Tombstone"
The night is dark, the moon is full
Across the blood red plain
And every step and every breath
Brings me nearer home
The spirits watch me on my way
They whisper on the wind
And when the dawn lights up the sky
I'll see my land again
A hot wind blows the scrub and dust
Across the barren land
The trees stand bare like skeletons
The mountains all torn down
Oh, the water holes are dry as bones
No birds are singing now
And far away, a city stands
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
