Lift the wailing wood
Hammer the tortured nails
Place the ghostly steps
Below the battered railsInvite those crazy strangers
Dressed in stranger clothes
Join the mighty miracle
Ready to unfoldBuilding a stairway
In the desert
Aimed toward the pure and honest sky
Building a stairway
In the desert
Going to rise for miles
And milesLeave this evil town
Where scorpions share your bed
Guilty snakes make a home
Deep inside your headThe bleeding sun
Burns your feet
Hangmen joke
Beggars weepBuried bodies
Cry for help
Undertakers
Steal your wealthBuilding a stairway
In the desert
Aimed toward the pure and honest sky
Building a stairway
In the desert
Going to rise for miles
And milesWere laughing and
Were dancing
In the desert
Dancing in the desert
Of our livesCant you see?
Were dancing in the desert
Dancing in the desert
Of our livesFeel so free
Dancing in the desert
Dancing in the desert
Of our livesFree.so free
In the desert
Dancing in the desert
Of our livesLift the wailing wood
Hammer the tortured nails
