"Wasteland" lyrics - JOHN CALE

We're living in
A wasteland
The soil is
Cold and damp
Volcanoes in
The distance
Riverbeds run dry

You comfort me
Hold me
In the dark

A black sea
A wind blows
The dinosaurs
Are gone
Gave up the
Ghost of yesteryear
Nothing could
Be done

You comfort me
Hold me
In the dark
