No Man's Land

I left home Tears in my eye Where I was going I had no idea That must have been The last time I cried From that moment forward All my teardrops disappeared Yeah I'm going down Where there ain't no one around And nobody knows who I am There's no way out No north, no south Here in no man's land Digging for days But no sign of diamonds All that I saw Was garbage and worms And a glimpse of the future The maniac horizon A silhouette I will dance In the lightning storm Yeah I'm going down To the forgotten part of town With roses and rubies in my hands The fog rolls in And waltzes with the wind Here in no man's land The time finally came To abandon my name Take a blind-eyed leap Into the big old unknown Someday maybe you'll find me Like a wild Santa Claus In a tinfoil hat Talking on a disconnected telephone But I got my crown And I got my sacred cow I'm a Buddha in the blazing, sinking sand The purple skies Electrify my eyes Here in no man's land Tell my neighbor to water my plants Tell the Devil that I learned how to dance Tell the Angels to wait up for me Tell the world I'm free And I'm deep in a dream Landscape is empty Except for one soul She's waiting there for me I fell into her arms I faintly remember The sweet song of salvation The hummingbirds in the trees Yeah I'm checking out And I'm riding on a cloud Back to where my whole being began Well I started to speak in tongues And swing around the sun Here in no man's land (x3)
