In the desert artillery takes it's time Pounds and recoils, shell after shell Sunk in the sand, a shattered statue lies Nothing survives in the desert, nothing survives Stamped out these lifeless things Mockery smashed on the pedestal No words appear No words appear Nothing beside remains ’Round the decay of that colossal wreck Boundless and bare, the lone and level sands Stretch far away My name is Blank, a creature of Bush and Blair Darkness and despair, darkness and despair
