The Miracle

Lift the wailing wood
 Hammer the tortured nails
 Place the ghostly steps
 Below the battered rails
 Invite those crazy strangers
 Dressed in stranger clothes
 Join the mighty miracle
 Ready to unfold
 Building a stairway
 In the desert
 Aimed toward the pure and honest sky
 Building a stairway
 In the desert
 Going to rise for miles
 And miles
 Leave this evil town
 Where scorpions share your bed
 Guilty snakes make a home
 Deep inside your head
 The bleeding sun
 Burns your feet
 Hangmen joke
 Beggars weep
 Buried bodies
 Cry for help
 Undertakers
 Steal your wealth
 Building a stairway
 In the desert
 Aimed toward the pure and honest sky
 Building a stairway
 In the desert
 Going to rise for miles
 And miles
 We're laughing and
 We're dancing
 In the desert
 Dancing in the desert
 Of our lives
 Can't you see?
 We're dancing in the desert
 Dancing in the desert
 Of our lives
 Feel so free
 Dancing in the desert
 Dancing in the desert
 Of our lives
 Free,.so free
 In the desert
 Dancing in the desert
 Of our lives
 Lift the wailing wood
 Hammer the tortured nails
