Once there was a time when I would wile away
The hours of my youth on an empty page
I've since then forgotten what I meant to say
It probably was full of shit anyway
To myself on the salt flats of Galilee
I said this desert, it aint big enough for both you and me
Neither of us stirred, for whatever that's worth
We just stood and stared together at the curve of the earth
I have hit the end
I have hit the end
Far off a beast was howling as the salt blew in
The howling, it got louder as my eyes got dim
In those seconds I repented for whoever might have heard
Until my mouth filled with so much salt I couldn't say a word
I have hit the end
I have hit the end
It suddenly went silent, and the sky grew dark
I knew right then that I was back at the start
The moon lit the salt flats in a crisp white haze
And each step I took left ink on its once empty page
