Red Desert (Rise Again)

Red Desert (Rise Again) Fire burns, angry burns even deep. Desert flames rise where no shadows sleep. I walk through fire while the silence calls. Until I find the lotus beyond the oasis doors. Verse 1 Red horizon burning through my eyes Neon shadows under crimson skies Every step a war against the sun But I still move, I’m not undone Dry wind cuts like memories Dust and ghosts surrounding me No direction, no escape in sight Still I carry wounds through the night Pre-Chorus Then I saw it in my mind A gentle lotus being born From the sand, from pain, from heat A silent sign beneath my tired feet Chorus 1 In the red desert, I run to survive Rush and energy keep me alive Looking for help like an oasis light Calling my name through the endless night When all is lost, I rise again Reconnection through the love and pain No more fear, no more alone I found the courage I thought was gone Instrumental Break Heartbeats thunder in my chest Every scar becomes a test I can hear the future in the wind Telling me where life begins Mirage fears fade away Truth is stronger than decay I was drowning in the heat Now the earth moves with my feet Chorus 2 Then I touched the sky within Basic lotus blooms again From the ashes of despair Life returns from empty air Chorus 2 In the red desert, I run to survive Rush and energy keep me alive Looking for help like an oasis sight Calling my name through the endless fight When I fall, I rise again Reconnection through the love and pain No more fear, no more alone I found the power I thought was gone Bridge At the oasis doors I hear A calmer voice replacing fear "No surrender, no retreat." Victory wakes inside of me Final Chorus In the red desert, now I own the sky No more crawling, now I learn to fly What I searched was always inside The strength I buried came alive From the silence, from the flame I return with a different name Red desert fading from my eyes Baptized by the fire... now I rise Outro Again...and again, and again And again
