[Verse 1]
The night is dark, the moon is full
Across the blood red plain
And every step and every breath
Brings me nearer home
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
A hot wind blows the scrub and dust
Across the barren land
The trees stand bare like skeletons
The mountains all torn down
[Verse 4]
Oh, the water holes are dry as bones
No birds are singing now
And far away, a city stands
Tombstones against the sky
[Refrain]
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
Tombstones against the sky
