Further into the ever-winding dreamscape, the scene shifts to a desolate desert terrain, with barely enough light to see my surroundings. As I wander through the desert wasteland I begin to notice that I am not alone as howls of some doglike creatures pierce the silence from all around me.
lyrics
On these sands
I find myself alone again
Through my hands
My fortune slips away
How will I ever ever escape…
Escape…. from this never-ending labyrinth?
On this arid desert plane I’ve run for days
As sounds of something else in the maze
Echo through the haze…
Following me along my way
Doglike beasts want their feast
Encircling me…
