It was gone with the morning light.

It's sundown in the sinkhole,
It's sunrise up on the hill.
The thieves are sleeping in hades palm,
And they're keeping very still.
It's summer in winterhaven,
And the earth, she's caving in.
There's no water on the land,
And it's all because of sin.

It's sundown in the sinkhole,
It's sunrise up on the hill.
The thieves are sleeping in hades palm,
And they're keeping very still.
It's summer in winterhaven,
And the earth, she's caving in.
There's no water on the land,
And it's all because of sin.

It's sundown in the sinkhole,
It's sunrise up on the hill.
The thieves are sleeping in hades palm,
And they're keeping very still.
It's summer in winterhaven,
And the earth, she's caving in.
There's no water on the land,
And it's all because of sin.
